GL Announces Simplified VoIP Testing

GL Communications has announced the release of VoIP Testing Solution with VQuad- an easy, automated, or manual means to testing end to end VoIP performance. Speaking to media persons, Mr. Robert Bichefsky, senior manager said, Testing at the end-points of a VoIP network is a true reflection of the voice quality that an end user is actually experiencing.

He added, VQuad can perform manual or automated tests on up to eight VoIP sessions simultaneously. Important features include: automatic call control (SIP protocol), automatic traffic generation/reception, and path confirmation using digits or frequency tones.

Mr. Bichefsky further added, VQuad along with the Dual UTA can connect to a VoIP network in several ways including through an ATA (the Dual UTA simulates the analog phone), through a Softphone (the Dual UTA provides Balanced I/O ports), via wireless (the Dual UTA connects to any mobile phone using Bluetooth® technology), and through the customer’s phone itself (the Dual UTA can replace the handset of ANY analog, digital, or VoIP phone). The VQuad™ can also act as an end point and directly connect to the VoIP network via SIP protocol.

He added, When simulating VoIP end points, as a user agent or thru the analog 2-wire interface, VQuad™ supports full call control including supplementary services such as 3-Way Calling. VQuad™ also supports path confirmation, send/record voice synchronously for VQT PESQ results and full scripting of the test. Additional measurements include Round Trip Delay, One Way Delay and a variety of functions for echo testing.
