Software Specifications
Table C-6 Software Specifications (All Protocols)
Description
|
Specification
|
Call progress tones
|
Configurable for two sets of frequencies and single set of on/off cadence
|
Dual-tone multifrequency (DTMF)
|
DTMF tone detection and generation
|
Fax
|
G.711 fax pass-through and G.711 fax mode.
Enhanced fax pass-through is supported on the Cisco ATA. Success of fax transmissions up to 14.4 kbps depends on network conditions, and fax modem/fax machine tolerance to those conditions. The network must have reasonably low network jitter, network delay, and packet-loss rate.

•Double-talk detection
|
Out-of-band DTMF
