Network Address Translation (NAT)
Network Address Translation (NAT) allows the translation of an Internet protocol address
used within one network (for example a private IP address used in a local network) to a
different IP address known within another network (for example a public IP address used on
the Internet).
Content Filtering
Content filtering allows you to block access to Internet web sites that contain key words (that
you specify) in the URL. You can also schedule when to perform the filtering and give trusted
LAN IP addresses unfiltered Internet access.
Media Bandwidth Management
Media Bandwidth Management allows you to specify bandwidth classes based on an
application and/or subnet. You can allocate specific amounts of bandwidth capacity
(bandwidth budgets) to different bandwidth classes.
REN
A Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) is used to determine the number of devices (like
telephones or fax machines) that may be connected to the telephone line. Your device has a
REN of three, so it can support three devices per telephone port.
Dynamic Jitter Buffer
The built-in adaptive buffer helps to smooth out the variations in delay (jitter) for voice traffic.
This helps ensure good voice quality for your conversations.
Multiple SIP Accounts
You can simultaneously use multiple voice (SIP) accounts and assign them to one or both
telephone ports.
Multiple Voice Channels
Your device can simultaneously handle multiple voice channels (telephone calls).
Additionally you can answer an incoming phone call on a VoIP account, even while someone
else is using the account for a phone call.
Voice Activity Detection/Silence Suppression
Voice Activity Detection (VAD) reduces the bandwidth that a call uses by not transmitting
when you are not speaking.
Comfort Noise Generation
Your device generates background noise to fill moments of silence when the other device in a
call stops transmitting because the other party is not speaking (as total silence could easily be
mistaken for a lost connection).
