Vendetta Conferencing Bridge
The Vendetta Series Conferencing Bridge, from Real Time Systems, Inc. provides 32, 128 or 256 non-partitioned conferencing ports. Conferences of any size may be formed, including empty conferences. The Vendetta is ideal for business conferencing and chat line applications. The Vendetta series of conferencing products guarantees you will always be able to add another party to any conference, at any time. Every function in the API ( Application Programming Interface ) executes in real time; the programmer does not need to be signaled that a function has completed.

Vendetta Applications
Chat Line
Business Conferencing

Vendetta Series Conferencing resource boards provide for a wide range of building solutions that vary from, small to mid-size party conferences for call centers, to small business applications, and chat lines to large systems, including collaboration servers, Internet-based audio conferencing systems, and business audio conferencing solutions.

Features and Benefits

• All conferences dynamically configured without maximum or minimum number of monitors

• DTMF clamping on all channels prevents tones from bleeding into conference

• Music On Hold audio jack accepts audio input from CD players, radios, etc

• Programmable entrance and exit chimes

• Background Noise Reduction improves conference quality by muting ambient noise

• Talker Activity Levels allows monitoring/control of conferees

• Input and Output Volume independently adjustable per line

• Call Monitoring Capability allows any line to participate on a listen-only basis in any conference

• Broadcast feature allows system operator to talk to any or all channels

• User-programmable single tone clamping on all channels.

• Coaching feature allows one talker to talk into another conferee’s “ear”. Other parties cannot hear the talker

• Optional echo suppression for difficult conferencing environments

• Supports u-Law and a-Law data

• Unix, Linux drivers

• Cascade multiple boards to form 256 to 2048 line conferencing systems

• Available for SCSA

Comparing the Real Time Systems Vendetta Series Conferencing Card with The Dialogic/Intel DCB Conferencing Card

• The Vendetta card incorporates a noise reduction algorithm that reduces back ground noise sounds from callers. The DCB Board Does not.

• The conference size is increased by the Vendetta card to up to 256 seats. The DCB Board is still limited to 32 seats in a conference.

• The Vendetta card allows for dynamic configurations of conferencing therefore not wasting valuable DSP resources. The DCB board can consist of blocks of 32 seats therefore can only be statically allocated. Example would if a DCB/960SC was configured for nine conferences of ten seats each than 2 seats per block or a total of 6 seats would be lost.

• Conference volume is configurable on any level with the Vendetta. The coach volume can be configured independently of the overall conference volume. The DCB series by Dialogic/Intel has no such features often resulting in echo, reverberation, and noise to be interjected to the conference at any given time. By far the Vendetta series of conference cards provide far superior sound quality over the DCB series of conference cards.

• The entry and exit tones of a vendetta card are less obtrusive and more conference friendly than the harsh DTMF beep of the DCB series.

• The Vendetta card allows to prevent a caller from entering a conference if there is not a minimum number of operators or callers. The DCB board does not.

• Ability to automatically remove a caller from a conference room and return him to the application when a predefined action occurs. Such a trigger event as the number of operator or callers dropping below the predefined threshold. The DCB board does not allow for any such routines and is cumbersome and slow in such actions. Once again the vendetta proves to be highly flexible versus the DCB series.

• The Vendetta card can take advantage of optional echo cancellation without eating valuable resources of Dialogic tables/processes. The DCB board must have one voice resource for conference seat to be allocated thereby reducing dramatically reducing node port capacity and overall system performance.
