Product and Sales Support
The TANDBERG 3G Gateways enable sites on IP and UMTS Handsets to participate in meetings
with each other with the quality and reliability found in all TANDBERG equipment. A 3G Gateway
can operate either standalone or in tandem operation with a TANDBERG Video Portal. In the
latter case the 3G Gateway needs to register itself with the respective Video Portal, which opens
up a wide range of interactive video and call routing services.

1.1 The TANDBERG 3G Gateway
Front view
The front panel provides 4 LAN interfaces, an LCD display, and an RS232 interface and control
buttons.
Rear view
The back panel provides four PRI interfaces, which can be activated individually by software
option keys, or 4 BRI interfaces depending on the configuration, one power switch/connector and
a VGA connector. Next to the PRI RJ-45 4 LED’s are mounted. In normal working condition the
green LED will be lit. Functions of the LED’s are:
Green: Normal operation
Red Alarm or Loss of signal (LOS) indicates that there is no signal and thus no framing info
received. A defect or unplugging the PRI cable will result in the same effect.
Yellow Alarm or Remote Alarm Indicator (RAI) means that the 3G Gateway is receiving framing
info, but in this framing info the other side tells the 3G Gateway that it is not reading the
gateway’s transmitted framing info. Typically, this may be a broken connector in the transmit (TX)
part of the PRI cable. This could also indicate weak or noisy signal in the transmit (TX) part of the
PRI cable.
10
TANDBERG 3G Gateway User Manual
Blue Alarm indicates that the received frames are not synchronized properly.
No LED’s light up, indicates that layer one framing is working (right protocol like for example
EURO ISDN selected), however there is a problem at layer 2 caused by for example a CRC4
configuration mismatch.
1.1.1 3G GATEWAY Capacity – typical scenarios
Due to the fixed bandwidth of UMTS video telephony every call will be limited to 64 Kbit. This
offers a capacity of 30 simultaneous calls through a single PRI 3G Gateway or 8 calls through a 4
x BRI 3G Gateway. Due to audio transcoding (AMR to G.711) the bandwidth at IP side is 109
Kbit/s per session, 64 Kbit G.711 audio and 45 Kbit H.263 video. Depending on the option
package and version of the 3G Gateway (PRI or BRI) the amount of simultaneous 3G calls can
be less then 30 or 23 for T1.

3.2 Dial from UMTS
The 3G Gateway supports three different UMTS Dial In services:
- “DiD” Æ Direct Inward dialing from a 3G handset.
- “IVR” Æ Dialing terminals from a 3G handset via a selection menu.
- “Phonebook” Æ Selecting an entry from a gateway phone book.
Any of these services can be enabled or disabled, but at least one must be enabled for incoming
call routing to take place.
In order to enable parallel incoming calls, a PRI number range must be defined.
For more details on UMTS Dial-In services, please see the section ‘5.10 Services’.
DID
Direct Inward Dialing (DID) will provide you with direct ISDN numbers for your IP endpoints i.e. it
will do a direct mapping between your ISDN number and an H.323/SIP Alias or vice versa. In
order to use DID you will need to have assigned multiple ISDN numbers to your ISDN PRI or BRI
line, as each ISDN number will map to a single IP endpoint.
Example:
Your ISDN number range is from 67124000 to 67124050 and DID is enabled.
You want your IP endpoints to have the numbers (H.323 Alias) in the range 94000 -
94050.
In the services Configuration, set (remove) Prefix/Nr to 67124, set Service Type to
DiD and (add) Prefix/Nr to 9.
To call an IP endpoint with H.323 Alias 94020 from ISDN, dial the ISDN number
67124020.
The gateway starts to call the IP endpoint and the “connecting” picture and sound are
activated.
When the call is connected audio and video are transmitted through the gateway.
IVR
Interactive Video Response (IVR), also called extension dial-in, is an automated answering
system that directs the call to the IP endpoint indicated by the caller. The caller uses telephone
tones (DTMF) to enter the H.323/SIP Alias or extension.
IVR is useful if you have limited numbers on your ISDN PRI or BRI line.
Example:
A videoconferencing system calls into the Extension Dial In number with IVR active.
The gateway activates the ‘Welcome’ picture and sound.
The videoconferencing system enters the extension (H.323 Alias) followed by the #
(pound-sign) to indicate end of number.
The gateway starts to call the IP endpoint and the “Connecting” picture and sound are
activated.
When the call is connected audio and video are transmitted through the gateway.
20
TANDBERG 3G Gateway User Manual
connecting
IVR Phonebook IVR Phonebook allows an UMTS phone to dial an IP endpoint directly, without
knowing or having to (manually) enter the extension number via DTMF. IVR Phonebook is a dialin method, which combines a directory listing from TMS with IVR. In this mode the user can
search in the global address book provided via TMS using the alphanumeric part of the keypad.
The 3G Gateway supports T9 phonebook and starts displaying the 5 entries which match with the
submitted characters as displayed below. Pressing 2 and 3 will result in a list with names
containing the combinations ‘ad’, ‘be’, ‘ce’, etc. For example trying to reach Allan.Bjornstad is
possible pressing the 2 and the 5 on the keyboard. This will result in a listing of names which
contain ‘al’. A valid list will contain both alisdair.munro and anne.aalbuk. The top name in the list
is highlighted and via the pound key (#) this person will be dialed. In case the name is not listed
pursue in completing the name using the T9 concept known from SMS. The star (*) key on the
keyboard is used as backspace.

The gateway shows a menu which makes it possible to submit the name (both
Christian and first name) via the alphanumeric DTMF keys . For example finding
Michel is possible via pressing 6 (m,n,o),4 ,2. The top entry in the phonebook will be
highlighted and pressing ‘#’ will starts to call the IP endpoint, the “Connecting” picture
and sound are activated.
When the call is connected audio and video are transmitted through the gateway.
Sequence of Services
To ensure best service to the incoming UMTS call, the gateway will first try to match the DID
number, and then the IVR Phonebook number.

3.3 Dial from IP
IP endpoints and MCUs can call out through the gateway by using one of the services defined on
the gateway. The gateway supports three different dial out services:
- “DiD” Æ Direct Inward Dialing to a 3G handset.
- “IVR” Æ Dialing 3G terminals via a selection menu.
- “Phonebook” Æ Selecting an entry from a gateway phonebook.
Services
Service prefixes are used for IP endpoints to access UMTS Handsets. Up to twenty
services/prefixes can be defined, but we recommend using one single prefix for simplicity.
Example:
An H.323 Service prefix for outgoing video calls is defined as “0”.
The IP endpoint dials 067121212 to dial the UMTS number 67121212.
The gateway starts to call the UMTS handset and the “Connecting” picture and sound
are activated.
Audio and video are transported through the gateway when the call is connected.
For more details on H.323 Services, please see ‘5.10 Services’.
22
TANDBERG 3G Gateway User Manual
Note that the bandwidth used for the call will be 109Kbit independent of the bandwidth
selected on the IP endpoint, except for selecting 64 Kbit. However this will result in an audio
only call.

4 View System Status
To view current gateway status, open ‘System Status’ as shown in the figure below.
4.1.1 ISDN PRI/BRI Status
PRI Status
The colored part of the system status indicates the condition of the ISDN PRI line. There are
three possible conditions:
• Sync 30 of 30. ISDN layer 1 and 2 are up and in sync.
• Sync 0 of 0, ISDN layer 1 and 2 are in sync but not up.
• Red Alarm, 0 of 0, ISDN layer 1 and 2 are down, mostly indicating a disconnected ISDN
line.
Besides the indications on the webpage the ISDN interface also contains 4 LEDs, located at the
back-side of the 3G Gateway.
24
TANDBERG 3G Gateway User Manual
These LEDs indicate the following PRI status:
Green: Normal operation
Red Alarm or Loss of signal (LOS) indicates that there is no signal and thus no framing
info received. The same effect will be obtained by pulling out the PRI cable. This may
also be caused by a broken connector in the receiver (RX) part of the cable.
Yellow Alarm or Remote Alarm Indicator (RAI) means that the gateway is receiving
framing info, but in this framing info the other side tells the gateway that it is not reading
the gateway’s transmitted framing info. Typically, this may be cause by a broken
connector in the transmitter (TX) part of the PRI cable. This could also indicate weak or
noisy signal in the transmitter (TX) part of the PRI cable.
Blue Alarm indicates that the received frames are not synchronized properly.
No LEDs light-up indicates that layer one framing is working (right protocol like for
example EURO ISDN selected). However there is a problem at layer 2 caused by for
example a CRC4 configuration mismatch.
BRI Status
The picture below shows the status page of a BRI version of the gateway.
25
TANDBERG 3G Gateway User Manual
The BRI status displays the conditions of ISDN layer 1 and 2 separately. Green indicates up and
in sync. Red indicates not in sync and indicate probably a disconnected ISDN line.
Besides the indications on the webpage each ISDN BRI interface located at the back-side of the
3G Gateway has a green and orange LED. The meanings of these LEDs are:
Green: Layer 1 of the ISDN signaling is up.
Green and Orange indicates that both layers 1 and 2 are up. Insome countries the
orange LED can blinks on a regular interval, or is turned on when there is an active call.
No LEDs light-up indicates that there is no connection or a wrong wired connection.
Note that in some countries layer 2 can be down when there is no activity (ongoing
connections). However, layer 2 should become active when a call is made or re ceived.
Note that in case the BRI 3G Gateway is connected with less then 4 BR lines, the BRI
interfaces with the highest number(s) should be left open. For example when only 2 ISDN
lines are used they should be connected with interface 1 and 2.

Interface Configuration
This section configures the PRI or ISDN interface.
PRI CRC-4
Used for most E1-PRI configurations. If your network equipment does not support this feature,
switch off PRI CRC-4.
Bearer capabilities
Within ISDN different bearer capabilities are used to signal the type of data (Voice, Data, H320,
H324M), which is used by switches and other equipment to determine what to do with the data or
the call (compressing voice data neglect etc).
•Incoming: sets the ISDN bearer capability of the incoming 3G calls. oUDI: In some situations the non correct UDI (Unrestricted Digital Information)
bearer is used in stead of the right H324M capability. This setting makes it
possible to accept incoming 3G calls with UDI bearer signaling.
oALL: Means that calls independent of their bearer capabilities are accepted. This
makes it even possible to accept audio calls.
•Outgoing: sets the ISDN bearer capability for the outgoing 3G calls.
o H324M: This ITU standardized capability is selected for outgoing calls by default.
o UDI: In some situations the switch does not accept calls which use the correct
H324M capability. This setting makes it possible to use the gateway in these
situations via selecting UDI.
Low Channel
Indicates the lowest numbered E1/T1 B-channel the system is allowed to use for each PRI-line
when selecting channels for outgoing calls. Presently, this setting has no effect.

Note that it is not possible to configure ISDN BRI lines for special functions like dial out only.
The gateway will automatically select a free BRI line for H323 to 3G calls and possibly block a
DiD or an IVR menu when the BRI lines have different numbers. It is therefore strongly
recommended that all ISDN BRI lines have the same number range. Contact your ISDN or
telecom supplier about numbering plans of ISDN lines.

5.2 SS7 Configuration
To configure the Signaling System 7 (SS7 signaling) of the ISDN SS7 trunks click the ‘SS7’ link of
the ‘System configuration’ tab, as depicted in the figure below.
General
•Originating Point Code (OPC). A number between 0-2
signaling point, in this case the 3G Gateway, within a telephone network. This number
consists of three parts, i.e. a network, cluster and member number, and will be provided
by the network operator.
•Network indicator. A two bit data field within the Service Information Octet of the
Message Signal Unit that permits discrimination between national and international
messages.
•Law. Either ALAW or ULAW. An a-law algorithm is a standard companding, i.e.
compressing and expanding, algorithm, used in European digital communication systems
to optimize, i.e. modify, the dynamic range of an analog signal for digitizing. The µ-law
algorithm is similar to a-law and used in North American and Japanese systems.
Trunks
A maximum of four PRI’s or SS7 trunks, i.e. cables carrying E1/T1, can be enabled in the 3G
Gateway.
• Mode. Enable or disable a trunk.
• Destination Point Code (DPC). Uniquely identifies the destination signaling point of the
trunk. It will be provided by the network operator.
•CIC. The Circuit Identification Code is a unique identifier for a data time slot in a cable
(trunk). In this case the CIC acts as base address and can be defined for each SS7 trunk
and sets the first time-slot number of the respective SS7 trunk.
Link sets
A link is a time slot within a trunk used for signaling. Link sets are typically used for signaling failover purposes to one switch.
• Enabled. Checking this box enables at least one signaling link in a link set.
• Destination Point Code. Uniquely identifies the destination signaling point of the link.
This can differ from the DPC of the trunk, e.g. the DPC of a Signaling Transfer Point
(STP), see example 2 below.
oEnabled. Link1 is checked by default. Whereas, a second link box can be
checked to define an extra signaling link for fail-over purposes.
o Trunk. Number of the trunk (1 - 4) in which a time slot is reserved for signaling.
o Time slot. Number of the time slot, within aforementioned trunk, reserved for
signaling.
oSLC. A Signaling Link Code is a unique link number provided by the network
operator to identify a link.
Routes
Routes are typically used for signaling fail-over purposes via multiple switches.
•Destination Point Code. Unique identifier indicating the destination signaling point of a
trunk.
•Priority. Priority level of the route to the destination signaling point. Fail-over signaling
paths will be followed according to this priority.
•Link set. Indicates the link to the destination signaling point according to the above
mentioned priority setting. When set to off the respective route is disabled.

Save
When ready to store the new settings, press ‘Save’. These settings will take effect when the
system has been restarted.
Restart
This button will restart the 3G Gateway. Any changes made in the SS7 Configuration of the 3G
Gateway will take effect after the system has been restarted.
The following two examples will explain the above mentioned SS7 settings.
Example1
Suppose all 4 SS7 trunks of one 3G Gateway are connected to one switch, as indicated in the
connection schematic below. In this example the Originating point code (OPC) of the 3G
Gateway, equals 99 and the Destination Point Codes (DPCs) for all trunks equal 100. Both OPC
and DPC are provided by the telephone network operator. These settings can be seen in the
schematic and in the screen shot of the SS7 window below. All trunks can carry a maximum of 30
calls, i.e. 30 data time slots. Each data time slot is identified uniquely by its OPC, DPC and Circuit
Identification Code (CIC). The “absolute” CIC consist of a CIC “base address”, which has to be
defined for each trunk in the SS7 window, i.e. in this case 0, 32, 64 and 96, and a relative
address. The latter is a number between 0 and 31 and depends on the choi ce of the framing time
slot and signaling time-slot numbers. Since one time slot is reserved for framing, in this case set
to time slot 0 by default, and one time slot has to be defined for signaling (16 in this example), 30
time slots are left to transport call related data, i.e. time slots with relative addresses 1-15 and 1731, see the table in the schematic below.
In the 3G gateway for signaling fail-over purposes a maximum of 2 SS7 trunks, also called links,
can be defined to take care of the SS7 signaling of all 4 trunks. In this case trunks 1 and 2 are
used for SS7 signaling. Since, there exists a direct connection between the 3G Gateway and the
switch, both links are defined in the same link set with the DPC of the switch, i.e. 100. Since, failover has been arranged within one link set, no routes can be defined.
33
TANDBERG 3G Gateway User Manual
Example2
Suppose 2 out of 4 trunks are connected to one switch and the other 2 to another switch. Now
SS7 signaling fail-over is arranged via two switches and two Signaling Transfer Points (STPs)
over 2 link sets, as can be seen from the schematic and the SS7 window below. Since the trunks
are terminated by the switches, the DPCs of trunk 1 and 2 are 100 and 101, respectively.
However, both links are terminated by the STPs. Link set 1 contains SS7 trunk 1 and is
terminated by an STP with DCP 200. Link set 2 contains SS7 trunk 3 and is terminated by an
STP with DCP 201. For each link 2 routes are available to 2 switches, one directly and one via an
STP. Priority 1 is assigned to all direct links, whereas all links via STPs have the lower priority 2.

5.4 H.323 Configuration
To dial out from IP to ISDN, through the 3G Gateway, requires the use of H.323 numbers (E.164
aliases). This means that the 3G Gateway must be registered to a Gatekeeper.
H.323 Gatekeeper Status shows the current status of the Gatekee per registration.
Note that if the Gatekeeper is configured with an alternative Gatekeeper, the Status area
might report a registration to the IP address of the alternative Gatekeeper.
Gatekeeper Settings
Gatekeeper Mode Enables the 3G Gateway to register to a Gatekeeper or without (direct
mode). Selecting direct will gray out the gatekeeper IP address settings.
When registered with a gatekeeper, the H.323 Gatekeeper Status shows
Registered, Gatekeeper’s IP address and what port used.
Selecting direct mode will result in no Gatekeeper registration; hence it is not
possible to dial through the 3G Gateway via alias names. The H.323 Gatekeeper
Status area will be empty.
Problems with registration will be shown in the Status area and as a Red alarm
on the ‘Overview’ page.
Gatekeeper IP Address
Enter the Gatekeeper IP Address that the 3G Gateway should register to. Leaving empty will
result in direct dialing without the use of aliases.
39
TANDBERG 3G Gateway User Manual
Authentication Mode
Off Register to the Gatekeeper without authentication.
Auto Register to the Gatekeeper with H.235 authentication using ID/Password given below.
Authentication ID, Password
Enter the ID and password required to perform H.235 authentication at the Gatekeeper.
To register to a Gatekeeper that requires authentication, an NTP server has to be configured.
Note in case password is empty the 3G Gateway will still use the Authentication ID to register
with the gatekeeper. However, when the Authentication ID is left empty, the System Name
field (see paragraph 5.8) will be used to register the 3G Gateway with the gatekeeper in stead.
In case both the Authentication ID field and the System Name field are empty the 3G Gateway
can not be registered with the gatekeeper.

Note that it is not possible to configure ISDN BRI lines for special functions like dial out only.
The 3G Gateway will automatically select a free BRI line for H.323 to 3G calls and possibly
block a DiD or an IVR menu when the BRI lines have different numbers. Therefore, it is
strongly recommended that all ISDN BRI lines have the same number range.
5.10.1 IVR
The 3G Gateway contains a so called interactive video and voice response system, which
enables the selection of destinations from a phonebook. It is also possible to submit a number of
an IP endpoint when the extension is known. The figure below shows an example of the input
screen.
51
TANDBERG 3G Gateway User Manual
The numbers typed will appear after ca. 0.5 seconds on the screen. Pressing the # key after
submitting the number triggers the 3G Gateway to make a connection with the respective
endpoint.
