1 Introduction
1.1 Product Overview
MTA8328-1U uses your broadband connection to deliver voice quality and features equivalent to those of
the PSTN. It is compatible with standard analog telephone sets, and it is very easy to install and configure.
MTA8328-1U can be connected via a USB cable (to a PC or laptop) to obtain network connectivity.
1.2 Package Contents
The MTA8328-1U package comes with the following items:
1.3 Setup
This section provides a step-by-step procedure to install the MTA8328-1U and setup the system for
connecting to a broadband network.
Setup and Configuration of the MTA8328-1U can be managed via a Web Browser interface. Once the
MTA is connected as outlined in Figure 1 proceed to access and configure the MTA8328-1U via a Web
Browser interface.

When Auto-negotiation is disabled, more
options are available for you to configure.
Note: Both Link Mode and Link Speed
Provisioning Tags should be added at the
same time.

3.1.4 Master DNS
“Master DNS” is the IP address of the domain name server specified by the telephony service provider
rather than the internet service provider. If “Master DNS” is configured, the MTA gets related services
from this configured server and performs voice communication functions. The MTA acquires DNS server
information from the following methods in the priority shown.
1. Master DNS
2. DHCP Option (USB Network IP Address Setting)
3. Manually configured DNS (Host and DNS Servers)

ToS (Type of Service) is a part of the IPv4 header which is used for precedence, or in other words
categorizing traffic classes. In summary, the higher the value of the IP Precedence field, the higher the
priority of the IP packet. In the more modern form, the ToS is used for DSCP.

4.1.5 DigitMap Setting
Digitmaps are templates that match different sequences of digits that users dial as part of their
interaction with their phone system. After the user dials, when there is a match between the digits dialed
and the digitmap, the MTA device sends the digits to the server to initiate the call. If there is no match,
the system waits for the user to enter more digits or press the send key to indicate dialing is complete.
Load the SIP device with this digitmap pattern which corresponds to the dial plan selected by the service
operator. The digitmap is expressed in a format derived from the UNIX system command, “egrep.” You
must build the digit map based on the dialing plan which you wish to support.
A DigitMap, according to this syntax, is defined either by a (case insensitive) “String” or by a “list of
strings” over which the SIP Device will attempt to find a shortest possible match. Regardless of the above
syntax, a timer is currently only allowed if it appears in the last position in a string. Each string in the list is
an alternate numbering scheme.
The formal syntax of the digit map is described by the following notation:

Configure the parameters for sending and receiving a fax over the VoIP channel. Two major approaches
are adopted for fax over IP nowadays. Faxing involves two fax devices communicating generally for the
purpose of passing one or more pages of image data from the sender to the receiver.
G.711, sending fax signals in-band using the coding method of regular voice transmissions, or
T.38, a protocol that describes how to send a fax image data over the IP network. T38 is introduced
for more efficient and robust transmissions compared to use the same method as voice
communications.
There are pros and cons of both approaches described above. Consult your service provider for
appropriate configurations when needed.
Blind transfer is when a call is routed to a
third party and the original call is ended
without any check being made to determine
whether the transferred call is answered or
if the number is busy.
Consulted Call Transfer is used for
transferring a call to another destination
without releasing the call from the voice
platform until after the call is successfully
transferred.
Not transmitting information when one of
the parties involved in a call is not speaking.

4.3.2 Regional Setting
The MTA device connects your analog phone to its FXS (Foreign eXchange Subscriber interface). The FXS
port actually delivers the analog line to the subscriber. In other words it emulates the ‘plug on the wall’
that delivers a dial tone, battery current and ring voltage. FXS ports need to supply DC battery and AC
ringing to enable the connected telephone equipment to transmit speech energy and to power the
telephone equipment's ringing device.
These telephony parameters vary from country to country. When shipped from the factory, the MTA has
set these parameters to match the necessary specifications. You can manually configure them if you want
to override the default country values. (Notice: Incorrect input would result in poor voice quality or no
signal.)
In USA, the minimum ring voltage supplied is
40Vrms. The voltage at the subscribers end
depends upon loop length and the number
of ringers attached to the line.
The telephone company sends a ringing
signal which is an AC waveform.
The frequency used in the United States is
20 HZ and in Europe is typically 25 Hz.

4.3.3 Tone Cadence Setting
Configures the ring cadence (the timing of ringing to pause; it varies from country to country) for an FXS

The United Kingdom uses a double ring of 0.4 seconds separated by 0.2 seconds of silence, followed by 2
seconds of silence.
When shipped from the factory, the MTA has set the tone cadence to match the country requirements.
You can manually set the tone cadence if you wish to override the default country values.
A "stuttered" or interrupted dial tone is
often used to indicate a calling feature such
as call forwarding has been activated. (The

4.3.4 Ring Cadence Setting
For a telephone receiving an incoming call, the timing pattern of the incoming ring signal. This varies from

followed by four seconds off, then back on for two seconds, and so on, until the phone is answered or the
calling party hangs up, or a maximum number of rings is reached. Note that MTA8328 supports multiple
ring cadence profiles for different countries.
When shipped from the factory, the MTA has set the ring cadence to match the country requirements.

5.12 System Time
5.12.1 Time Setting
Configure the SNTP time server IP/FQDN and time zone with which the MTA device synchronizes.
Accurate time information is important for ensuring reliable telephony services.
(Note: MTA8328-1U tries all the configured
servers, calculates based on RFC 2030 and
the delay. It then uses the lowest delay as
the peer updates and sets the local time.)
Ensure that all cables (PC USB, Telephone) are properly connected to the MTA (see Page 7).
Pick up telephone handset (phone off-hook), check for LED to be fast blinking Green. If not, please
disconnect MTA power USB cable, and then reconnect it again.
If previous steps fail, report the failure to your VoIP service provider for attention.
