Voice-Over-IP 
The IPNCs Voice-over-IP (VoIP) technology enables a data network to carry 
voice traffic along with data. Support of compression, Quality of Service (QoS) 
and echo cancellation technology ensures that speech quality is optimised. Voice 
compression is supported on four variants of the IPNC (IPNC-VC, IPNC-M-VC, 
IPNC-VC5 and IPNC-M-VC5). Each IPNC is capable of compressing either 5 or 
20 simultaneous calls using a choice of industry standard algorithms. 
The IPNC can implement QoS for digital serveices on all INDeX line types, 
including point-to-point, WAN linkls, Frame, Relay, DPNss, Sig and BRI. 
However, where density of calls is a prime requirement and IP (data) connectivity 
is not, then it may be more appropriate to use the INDeX Voice Compression 
Cassette (VCC). 
Implementation Considerations 
Bandwidth Requirements 
There are two methods of connecting INDeXs using VoIP:  
1) Using a directly connected Wide Area Network  
2) Using an indirectly connected Wide Area Network.  
Voice Prioritisation 
Each voice packet transmitted by the IPNC has the TOS field marked to indicate 
its priority (Diffserv). When using an indirectly connected WAN all devices should 
be capable of handling marked traffic at a priority to ensure prompt handling of 
voice calls. Alternatively, over supplying the available bandwidth can ensure all 
packets, voice and data, are handled quickly. The IPNC can also set the 
maximum number of simultaneous voice calls. In a directly connected WAN, this 
coupled with Diffserv has the effect of managing bandwidth, i.e. if there are no 
voice calls in progress data will be allowed to occupy the full capacity of the link. 
Each voice call initiated will then push back the data occupancy up to the 
maximum allowed number of voice connections. In this manner it is possible to 
guarantee the bandwidth available to voice and data. 
Sending Voice over an Ethernet Connection 
Whenever voice calls are sent over an Ethernet connection, as in the indirectly 
connected WAN scenario and IP Extensions, consideration should be given to 
Ethernet collisions. If there are too many devices sharing a segment collisions 
can cause interruption to voice traffic. This can be simply addressed by allocating 
the IPNC LAN port and the WAN routers a dedicated port on a LAN Switch.
