Bandwidth Optimization Overview
• Service providers’ challenge: reduce operating expenses without sacrificing service quality– Alternative over-the-top services already using higher quality codecs (e.g.
Skype)– Increasing expectation of “land-line” quality using mobile services
• What do service providers need?– High bandwidth optimization and high voice quality - simultaneously
6
– High bandwidth optimization and high voice quality - simultaneously– Scalable solutions that cost-effectively grow as traffic increases– Robust performance during adverse packet network conditions– Interoperability with a wide range of 3rd party VoIP equipment– Support for switched/static/combination on the same platform
• Voice optimization important today but the focus is shifting quickly to data (e.g. web traffic, video) optimization– The amount of data traffic already exceeds voice traffic and is growing
rapidly on 3G mobile networks– Data services are the driver for new devices and services (e.g. LTE)

What Makes Veraz Bandwidth Optimization Different?
• Silence suppression, voice activity detection– The I-Gate 4000’s voice activity detection performance has consistently been rated
best-in class in multi-vendor tests
• Packet loss concealment (PLC) and QoS assurance– The I-Gate 4000’s unique Packet Priority Scheme maintains voice quality by
selectively dropping low priority PLC packets under adverse network conditions
• Packet payload aggregation, RTP multiplexing– RTP multiplexing significantly reduces bandwidth requirements and core router load
8
– RTP multiplexing significantly reduces bandwidth requirements and core router load without effecting voice quality
– The I-Gate 4000 EDGE demonstrated 16:1 compression using G.723.1 with a reduction in MOS score of only 0.3 in field testing of RTP multiplexing
• Proper handling of fax and modem data traffic– The I-Gate 4000 family incorporates Veraz’s 15 years of experience in identifying and
handling fax and modem data traffic appropriately
The core technology used across the I-Gate 4000 family ensures high compression rates with high quality
Session Control Overview
• Service provider’s challenge: develop innovative revenue generating services while rapidly reducing the cost of the core voice business
• What do service provider’s need?– Solutions that extend and leverage their existing voice service infrastructure
– Solutions that gracefully incorporate both legacy TDM and new IP-based systems and protocols
– Solutions that scale cost-effectively as traffic and services grow
9
– Solutions that scale cost-effectively as traffic and services grow
– Products that are highly focused on solving specific problems and not burdened with unnecessary features
• Unique opportunity with LTE and IPX to provide innovative voice solutions to mobile carriers– Mobile carrier need LTE for data but can’t afford to ignore providing high-
quality mobile voice
– Significant industry debate about how and when LTE will support voice
