Platform based on Intoto iGateway RGS Plus Software and Intel® Network Processors Demonstrates AT&T CallVantage Service


INTEL DEVELOPER FORUM, SAN FRANCISCO, Calif., September 7, 2004 — Intoto Inc., a leading provider of integrated security, wireless and voice software platforms to networking equipment manufacturers, today announced that it will demonstrate an industry-leading Voice over IP (VoIP) solution for residential and Small-Office/Home-Office (SOHO) gateway equipment at the Intel Developer Forum Fall 2004. The complete VoIP solution features Intoto’s iGateway RGS Plus software platform running on an Intel® IXDP425 Advanced Development Platform. Demonstrations will showcase AT&T CallVantage^SM Service.

The live VoIP demonstrations will be held in Intoto’s booth #1116 and Intel’s demo pavilion, as well as on-stage during the keynote session by Howard Bubb, vice president of Intel’s Communications Infrastructure Group, on September 7, 2004.

“With the combination of Intoto’s VoIP software platforms and Intel® IXP4XX network processor products, OEMs can quickly add VoIP capabilities to new systems or existing products,” said Doug Davis, vice president and general manager, Intel Network Processor Division. “This capability is fast becoming a ‘must have’ feature for networking OEMs to meet service provider requirements.”

The market for VoIP services is, by any measure, experiencing high growth and is expected to continue this growth throughout the decade. Subscribers are expected to grow to millions of VoIP subscribers in just the next four years alone. AT&T CallVantage Service, a nationwide VoIP service for consumers and Small-to-Medium Businesses (SMBs), is a leader in this market transformation.

"The reference design by Intoto with Intel will lower development costs for manufacturers and speed time to market for new VoIP devices such as telephone adapters, routers and high-speed modems that can be quickly certified to support AT&T CallVantage Service,” said Christopher Rice, director of access technologies research at AT&T Labs. “AT&T’s award-winning broadband phone service offers one of the most robust feature sets and best voice quality in the industry.”

To meet the proprietary SIP requirements of AT&T CallVantage Service, Intoto has entered into a license with AT&T wherein Intoto’s iGateway RGS Plus has also been enhanced with advanced features such as remote software upgrade and provisioning over SSL, caller ID privacy, 3-way and n-way calling, call forwarding, call waiting, voice mail, emergency services, speed dial, presence, session timeout management, DTMF relay, elaborate dial plan and digit map.

Intoto’s iGateway RGS Plus software platform has been optimized for the Intel IXP425 network processor. The Intel XScale core operates at very high speeds for processing algorithms such as G.711, G.726, G.729, G.722 and G.723.1 with very low power consumption. In addition, built-in network processing engines (NPEs) support advanced “livelock prevention” for better voice quality. The IXP425 is supported by a powerful DSP software library that runs on the high speed Intel XScale® core. The DSP library includes VAD and CNG, adaptive/dynamic jitter control, multi-framing, echo cancellation, eliminating the need for separate DSP silicon. The iGateway RGS Plus software further enhances voice quality through DiffServ, traffic policing, RED/ WRED and packet scheduling algorithms. It also leverages the NPEs to provide high-performance LAN/WAN throughputs.

“As the demand for broadband customer premise equipment continues to grow, OEMs must begin establishing their VoIP product strategies now,” said Doug Makishima, vice president of marketing at Intoto. “With Intoto’s iGateway RGS Plus platform, OEMs gain an integrated, certified and interoperable software solution that allows them to quickly differentiate their products in a highly competitive residential market.”
