Sorry, forget about the output, wrong gateway.

Interesting.  I'll see what info I can squeeze out of my account team.  Definitely looks like a completely different architecture.  Can someone that is running a PVDM3 get us a 'show voice dsp' to see what the chipset is?

Unfortunately the product specification for the PVDM2 and PVDM3 are listed in two totally different formats.  The PVDM2 product spec is very forthcoming in stating the PVDM2 uses Texas Instruments DSP and runs at either 200mhz or 175mhz.  The specification for PVDM3 doesn't state what type of DSP is used or the clock cycles.  It only says "Multicore DSP technology" - so I don't think Cisco wants to share that information right now.  It's possible that once someone gets their hands on one they will know more information.

It's not easy to find details about video and the PVDM3.  Perhaps video conference mixing?  The following is the closest thing I could find. "Video feature ready"

The PVDM2-64 and PVDM3-64 are the same price ($3200 list) although you can get them in much denser versions.  Has anyone run into any problems or flakiness with the v3's?  Are they running the same 5510 chipset?

One thing that is interesting is that it says it is a "voice and video" DSP.  What does this mean?  Is it going to be able to transcode or mix video?

The new PVDM3 modules are great. They are more expensive than PVDM2 of course, but they serve their purpose well.


Conferencing, Transcoding, and Transrating Services
The PVDM3 modules support digital voice connections, analog voice connections, conferencing, and universal transcoding services. The same DSPs on the PVDM3 modules can now support all the services with a single DSP image. In addition, the PVDM3 supports a higher number of conference sessions and a higher number of participants per conference than the PVDM2. The PVDM3-256 can support up to 6 conferences with 64 participants in each conference and up to 66 conferences with 8 participants in each conference.

I believe you can configure only one software bridge per server, or in retrospect you can configure a server as a software bridge only once.

I believe it takes some serious resources to run as a software bridge so you don't want to be doing it on your publisher or any subscribers that are close to capacity. If you have a standalone DHCP/TFTP server in your design, you should be able to get away with using that.

A software bridge does not have the hardware limitations w/ number of conference participants or number of conferences, but the system will just die if it can't keep up.

I haven't done a cost analysis, but I still think it would be cheaper to buy a small router with lots of DSPs and use that than to install and maintain CCM box.

Can some one tell me if i remove all my hardware conf bridges, how many software conf bridges will i have and how are they used. I am version 7.1.2 CCUM.

How many software conf bridges do i have per server?

Thanks

Robert
