Chapter 1: Overview
Features and Capabilities
State of the art Management system
The Call Relay 60 is managed by the Tenor Configuration Manager and Tenor Monitor. Through the
Tenor Configuration Manager, you can configure all options. An easy-to-use Java-based installation
process enables you to install the manager and start configuring within minutes. Through the Tenor
Monitor, you can monitor the activity level and status of the system’s active calls, including alarms,
call detail records, etc. Both the Tenor Configuration Manager and Tenor Monitor provide compre-
hensive on-line help systems that are available at your fingertips.
In addition, you can configure the unit through the Command Line Interface (CLI). Through this
simple telnet session, you can access all configuration options, including an online help system,
built into the CLI, which provides help for all features and functions. Just type help with the com-
mand name at any prompt, and data about that field will be displayed.
Direct Connection Between VoIP Networks
As an inter-domain portal, the Call Relay 60 switch provides direct IP connection between multiple
networks. The switch eliminates the need to link two or more VoIP networks via PSTN gateways.
See
Figure 1-2 .
A direct connection between VoIP networks provides lower latency and the best possible voice qual-
ity by eliminating multiple compression/decompression steps when linking multiple VoIP networks.
