Edge Gateway Toolkit - Overview Contact us for more information

Aricent Edge Gateway Toolkit (EGT) provides the shortest path to realize the low port density SIP-based edge gateways used in residential and small and medium businesses (SMBs) and passive optical network (PON) -based optical network terminal (ONT). EGT supports a ready set of voice supplementary services, POTS adaptation ability, NAT traversal, and Fax support ability. It is built over an optimized, low-footprint SIP layer; with scalability and readiness on reference semiconductor.

EGT is much more than a SIP layer; it is a gateway enabler toolkit that is reliable, architecture and platform independent, and easily customizable onto any customer-specified hardware platform. It handles the complexity of SIP signaling, media and client management procedures, and provides simple application level operations to the application developer. EGT provides much higher abstraction, simpler and fewer APIs, and has silicon ready reference design. EGT has successfully undergone software-to-software interoperability testing.

EGT enables rapid development of solutions requiring inter-working, with SIP interface on one side and any other protocol interface on the other (SIPtoX).

EGT provides interfaces to the application clients for the following functions:

Signaling: SIP Session control and management, which is SIP standard compliant (RFC3261)*

Media: EGT provides APIs for media manager interface and can be integrated with a third party media manager. The media interface supported by IP Phone Toolkit has support for audio, T.38, DTMF through 2833 and video.

Management: EGT provides configuration APIs, and remote management and troubleshooting support (extensive statistics collection; error reporting; multi-level tracing support). It also supports run time user driven configuration.

You can use Aricent EGT in wide range of solutions, which include:

  • Edge gateways for Home, Small and Medium Businesses (SMBs) and Remote Branch Offices (RBOs)
  • Analogue Terminal Adapter (ATA)
  • Integrated Access Devices (IAD)
  • VoIP Routers

Aricent EGT provides an OEM/ODM with almost ready to use software, requiring little development, which helps in reducing time-to-market for feature-rich telephony applications. The modular architecture of EGT is capable of supporting up to 256 phone lines. EGT allows you to host multiple applications simultaneously. This enables the development of new applications for enterprise communication, gaming, and entertainment. Further, Aricent EGT supports adding, deleting, rejecting new media stream in mid session. It enables auto configure download, activation, firmware upgrade tracking. EGT also facilitates extensive statistics collection, error reporting and multi-level tracing support.
