Welcome to the latest edition of Tenor®NotesThis month’s Tenor Notes newsletter brings lots of new and exciting information!TENOR HIGH NOTESNew Products: Quintum debuted two new products in October.Tenor Call Relay - At the Internet Telephony show in San Diego we debuted our Tenor Call Relay, the VoIPNetwork Portal. The Tenor Call Relay provides a single VoIP portal between IP networks allowing for end-to-endVoIP communications across multiple IP networks. All calls are switched through multiple IP networks with justone single compression and decompression of the voice. It allows VoIP endpoints behind a NAT and firewall tocommunicate with external VoIP networks.Tenor GateKeeper - The second new product, our standalone GateKeeper, wasannounced at VON in Atlanta. The GateKeeper is H.323 compliant, and provides the call routing andadministration for all H.323 VoIP endpoints in a network, including gateways, IP phones and PC clients. Itdynamically self-configures the VoIP routing database, and will support static routing to provide connectivity toendpoints not part of your VoIP network. It provides load balancing among multiple gateways and authenticationand authorization of all calls in your VoIP network. Quintum’s Tenor Gatekeeper “base” unit sells for $1000. 100-call increments are available for $2500 and 20-call increments are available for $600. Competitors sell 20-callincrements for $2000 and more.New Functionality: Quintum has added software functionality in its Tenors.NATAccess™ is unique technology in the Tenor VoIP MultiPath Switches that allows VoIP implementers todeploy the Tenor VoIP MultiPath Switch behind NATs and NAT-enabled firewalls. Quintum’s innovativeNATAccess performs network address translation within packet payloads during the call set-up process. Byproviding the outside party’s router with the appropriate public IP addresses for internal users, NATAccess allowsauthorized streaming VoIP traffic – and only authorized traffic – to pass through the firewall.IVR/RADIUS Interface has also been added. This enhancement allows service providers to offer a full range ofpre-paid, post-paid, calling card and other payment plans for VoIP using any standards-compliant call accountingsystem. Tenor’s integrated support for IVR and RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service)applications gives service providers the flexibility to use either their existing and/or best-in-class third-party callaccounting/control systems as they roll out VoIP services.Patent Approval! If any vendor tells you that their VoIP products support QoS by switching to thePSTN…tell them to prove it! That’s because Quintum has obtained patent approval from the US Patent andTrademark office confirming that we are the true developers of the SelectNet™ functionality. So, Tenors are theonly products that offer this ability to TRANSPARENTLY switch calls that are on the IP over to the PSTNMID CALL if QoS is threatened.AwardsQuintum’s Tenor CMS and A200 were finalists for the Networld+Interop 2001 Best of Show Awards, in the IPVideo and Telephony category.
