Introduction
             • Internet telephony uses the Internet protocol
                to send audio, video an data between two
               or more users in the real time.
             • IP telephony is the integration and
               convergence of voice and data networks,
               services, and applications.
             • The main motivation of development of IP
               Telephony is the cost saving & integrating
               new services.

Introduction (cont…)
             • Vocaltec introduced the first Internet
               telephony software product in early 1995.
               Running a multimedia PC, the Vocaltec
               Internet Phone.
             • In 1996, Vocaltec with an Intel Company
               announced to produce the first IP telephony
               gateway.

Different type of IP telephony
             Standard
             • H.323 standard

             • Session initiation protocol (SIP)

             • Media gateway to media controller protocol
               (MGCP)

What is H.323
             • The H.323 standard for the transmission of
               real-time audio, video, and data
               communications over packet-based
               networks based on IP telephony.
             • H.323 is a standard produced by the ITU-T
               Study Group 16.
             • Currently the most widely-supported IP
               telephony signaling protocol.

H.323 Components

             •   Terminals
             •   Gateways
             •   Gatekeepers
             •   Multipoint Control Units (MCUs)




09/03/2013               IP Telephony              12
• Terminals          :
              H.323 terminal can either be a personal
              computer or a stand-alone device, running
              an H.323 and the multimedia applications.

             • Gateways :
              An H.323 gateway provides connectivity
              between an H.323 network and a non-H.323
              network.

H .225 call signaling
             • H.225 call signaling is used to set up connections
               between H.323 endpoints over which the real-time
               data can be transported.
             • Two types :
                – Direct call signaling
                – Gateway routed call signaling

               end-to-end delivery services of real time
               audio and video.
             • RTP is used to transport data via the user
               datagram protocol

Conclusion
             • Internet telephony is cost savings and
               integrating new services.
             • Internet Telephony is a powerful and
               economical communication options by
               combination of the telephone networks and
               data networks.
             • Many public telecommunication operators
               are establishing their own IP telephony
               services, and using IP-based networks as
               alternative transmission platforms.
