Familiarization with MShow
• Audio streaming• Sending us questions
Agenda• Different types of fax applications
– Occasional fax– Fax server
• Architectures of such applications• Resource management tools
– dspcalc563xx.xls– PikaSetup.exe
• PIKA’s fax features• Overview of PK_FAX_* API functions• Benchmarks
Fax on all PIKA cards
• The content of this webinar applies to all PIKA MM-series cards – InLine MM, Daytona MM, PrimeNet MM– Equipped with Motorola 56303 DSPs to
support PIKA’s “All-on-Board” features including fax
Types of fax applications
Occasional fax• PC-PBX with fax• Unified messaging
system• Fax on demand
Fax server• Fax broadcasting• Email / fax gateway
Example: PC-PBX with 2 fax ports
Example: PC-PBX with 2 fax ports
Example: Fax on demand
• Call in and request a fax of a real estate listing
Occasional fax
• Few fax ports supporting many trunks
• Resource pooling / management
• Uses advanced tone detection (ATD) to conserve DSP processing power
• No additional DSPs required
Fax server• Fax broadcasting
• Always fax on all ports
• Additional DSPs are usually required for high density applications
• Rule of thumb: – Rx 4 fax channels per DSP (Rx/Tx)– Tx 6 fax channels per DSP
Fax server example• Financial institution must fax time-
sensitive information to subscribers• 9:00 am broadcast fax on 10,000
channels– “Stock Tip of the Day” before markets open
• 10:00 am broadcast audio on 9,000 channels– Quarterly earnings report
Fax broadcasting time-sensitive info to subscribers
Resource management
• Occasional fax– Few DSP resources required
• Fax server– Many DSP resources required– Add V-Engines if necessary
• dspcalc563xx.xls
• PikaSetup.exe
Resource estimation: Occasional
• PC-PBX with fax capabilities• 24 trunks to PSTN with IVR, auto
attendant capabilities, voicemail, etc.• Want to add fax capability on all
trunks, any 2 simultaneous max.• dspcalc563xx.xls shows we can add
2 channels of fax Tx and Rx • No additional DSPs required

PIKA: high density fax solution
• Fully loaded PrimeNet MM quad span
• 6 Tx channels x 22 DSPs = 132 Tx
• Maximum transmit density on market
• 4 Rx channels x 22 DSPs = 88 Rx
• 22 DSPs = 4 onboard DSPs + 3 VE-6
• Compare to 92 / 96 / 120 – T1 ISDN / T1 RBS / E1 ISDN or CAS
PIKA’s fax features• Supports ITU-T V.21, V.27ter, V.29 and
V.17 modems for send and receive data rates up to 14.4 Kbps. ITU-T T.30
• ECM (error correction mode)• Automatic detection of incoming calls• Header and footers added by senders and
receivers
PIKA’s fax features (cont’d)
• Subscriber ID
• T.4 and T.6 formats including:– Metric- and inch-based page sizes– All resolutions including 100x100,
200x200, 300x300 and 400x400– MH, MR and MMR encoding
