GL Simplifies End-to-End Voice Quality Testing
GL Communications Inc., announced today the release of its latest VQuad Software with Dual UTA Hardware product. Disclosing the news to press persons, Mr. Robert Bichefsky, senior manager said, “VQuad™ software combined with new Dual UTA hardware makes connection and analysis to any network (VoIP, 2Wire, T1 E1, and Mobile) easier, less cluttered, and more versatile than ever before. The one platform now:
* in* doubles the number of simultaneous interfaces,
* adds GPS accuracy and synchronization,
* adds dual Bluetooth interfaces,
* adds features such as RTD, OWD (one way delay) and many others,
* and ultimately simplifies voice quality testing across all networks
* low power USB hardware, no external power required, compatible with NetBooks
He added, “The single platform provides the means of sending and receiving speech signals through various network interfaces including Wireless, VoIP, 2 Wire analog (PSTN), and TDM (T1 E1). VQT software then analyzes the transmissions using ITU standard algorithms, PESQ, PAMS, and PSQM. Measurements are provided for Mean Opinion Score (MOS), speech level, noise level, echo, and other distortions common to voice transmissions. In addition features are provided for easy automatic, remote, and repetitive runs”.
Mr. Bichefsky further added, “Additional analytical measurements can be provided with GL’s Voice Band Analyzer (VBA) for echo, activity factor, and other voiceband parameters. Round Trip Delay and One Way Delay measurements are provided directly by the Dual UTA hardware”.
