As high-speed Internet networks such as ADSL, VDSL, and FTTH have evolved into Broadband convergence Network (BcN), IP-based video calling tools such as Internet video phones and video conference call systems are increasingly getting popular and are evolving as an alternative to the traditional voice calling services. Also, a call center has been providing video services more and more in addition to simple voice services. It has caused the increased demand for an IP-based video recording solution.
AddPac AP-MRPP (Multimedia Recording Provision Platform) is not a simple video recording solution at an end-to-end point but the next-generation multimedia video recording solution that supports a total multimedia video recording service architecture on an integrated wideband IP network and that provides services along with various IP-based video devices (e.g. analog/digital VoIP gateways, IP video phones, IP phones, and IP-PBXs).
The multimedia video recording solution of AddPac is configured with AP-NR2000, which is a multimedia video recording server, an IP video phone-type media player, a multimedia video recording manager, and multimedia video recording endpoint equipments. The multimedia video recording endpoint equipments, which are configured with a variety of AddPac video terminals such as IP video phones and IP video conference systems, collect IP-based multimedia video data, and transfer the data to the recording server. The AddPac IP-based video devices used for AP-MRPP are equipped with RISC CPU and programmable DSP and can be upgraded by continuous software development and feature addition to meet various customer needs and environment requirements. Also, the devices are available in next-generation networking environments such as IPv6.
Hardware-Type High Performance Embedded Multimedia Video Recording Server
AddPac Multimedia Video Recording Server AP-NR2000 is configured with two Gigabit Ethernet interfaces, an RS-232C console for equipment management, a USB 2.0 interface, and ten 3.5-inch HDD slot interfaces that enable RAID1 configuration. NR2000 saves and manages the compressed video signals transmitted from the endpoint equipments in an embedded method, and transmits the signals to the media player for playback. The hard disk supports IDEs, and RAID1 is supported for the redundancy of the hard disk. Also, a hot swap based on push buttons is supported to replace the hard disk with a new one while the recording server remains in operation. The multimedia video recording servers of AddPac enable USB 2.0 interfaces and MS Windows-based network sharing for backup through secondary storage media (e.g. DVD).
Media Player for Multimedia Recording Playback
AddPac Media Player for video recording playback uses AP-VP300 as the standard model to support a variety of voice and video codecs. AP-VP300 decodes the compressed voice and video data transferred from the recording server, and allows you to listen to or watch the voice or video played through the speaker, headset, or handset interface. AP-VP300 can also play back various voice codecs such as G.711, G726, G.723.1, and G.729 and video codecs such as H.263, MPEG4, H.264, and JPEG, and is used as an IP video phone typically. In addition, AP-VP300 supports two Fast Ethernets and the RS-232C console port as well as USB interface ports, shortcut keys, and a large-screen LCD. AP-VP300 uses a high-performance RISC microprocessor and a high-performance DSP to play back high-quality voice/video in real-time.
Firmware Upgrade Ensured
The components of AP-MRPP, which are AP-NR2000 Multimedia Video/Audio Recording Server, IP video phone-type media player, and multimedia video recording endpoint equipments, as well as the high-performance system RISC CPU and DSP are all programmable; thus, the features of AP-MRPP can continue to be improved, changed, or added. If you download an added or changed feature from the home page directly or set an automatic upgrade option whenever feature addition or change is done, you can use the latest feature without further operations.
Simultaneous Support to Multi-Codec
AddPac AP-MRPP uses an advanced high-performance DSP to provide the real-time multimedia video recording solution of higher quality compared to the traditional solutions based on high performance and reliability. The multimedia video recording data compressed or captured by an endpoint equipment through G.711, G726, G.723.1, G.729, or video codecs such as H.263, MPEG4, and H.264 are transferred and saved in the recording server, and the built-in LCD panel and S-Video interface of AP-VP300 allow you to monitor external video and to listen to the voice played through the speaker, headset, or handset. AP-MRPP also supports a Windows-based multi-channel media player that enables several video data to play back simultaneously. AP-MRPP currently supports MPEG4/G.711 and MPEG4/G.726, which are Windows-based multi-channel (16-channel) media players, and will support video codecs such as H.263 and H.264 and voice codecs such as AAC.
