Ethernet Connectivity
TheNet-2000™-P25VCUgoesbeyondjustimplementingDVSI’spatentedHalf-
Rate Voice Compression Software, it also integrates an Ethernet interface for
remoteaccessandcontrol. The10Base-TEthernetconnectionontheNet-2000™-
P25 VCU allows full-duplex real-time or half-duplex non-real time voice
compressionapplicationsoveraLocalArea Network (LAN). Using the LAN, two

(VOIP)Ethernetbasedvocodercommunicationsystem. Communicatingbetween
twoNet-2000™-P25VCUis aseasyasenteringtheIPaddress(orhostname)of
the Net-2000™-P25 VCU units, selecting the desired voice interface and the
Full-Rate or Half-Rate Vocoder mode.
When two Net-2000™-P25 VCU communicate, each converts the input analog
speechintodigitalspeechsamples,encodesthespeechusingtheselectedAPCO
Full-Rate or Half-Rate mode and then sends the compressed bit stream out as
UDP packets over the Ethernet interface. Simultaneously, the compressed bit
stream of UDP packets from the other Net-2000™-P25 VCU is read in from the
Ethernetinterfaceanddecoded back in to digitalspeechsamples. Thedecoded
samples are converted back into analog speech via the AIC-10 codec whose
output is sent to both the handset and line-level output connections. Since the
channel data is a packet based UDP Ethernet protocol users can develop their
own customized controls and user interfaces so that the Net-2000™-P25 VCU
can fit into an endless array of applications.

TheEthernet connection to aLAN provides the abilityfor any PC onthe network
to use a standard web browser to control the Net-2000™-P25 VCU. The user-
friendly web server built-into the Net-2000™-P25 makes it easy to select analog
audio I/O interfaces, select the vocoder mode and to establish communication
acrosstheEthernetconnection. Inadditiontothecontrol,thewebpagesdisplay
information about network settings, operating mode and system status. Since
the Net-2000™-P25 uses Ethernet, its web page can even be accessed from
notebook or tablet PC via wireless network.
Fast and Easy Set-up
Initialset-up of the Net-2000™-P25 VCU is straightforward and fastthanks to its
Ethernet network connection. It is equipped to handle IP address information
from a DHCP server when available on the LAN. Alternatively, the Net-2000™-

Variety of I/O
To meet a wide range of communication system requirements
the Net-2000™-P25 Voice Codec Unit hosts a variety of inputs
andoutputs. ForuncompressedanalogvoiceI/OtheNet-2000™-
P25VCUsupports2-wire,4-wireandhandsetanaloginterfaces.
For compressed voice data communication across a channel,
digitized speech can be transmitted and received through either
the Ethernet or RS-422 serial interface. A unique feature of the
Net-2000™-P25VCUisthatbothvoiceandchanneldatacanbe
transmitted over the Ethernet interface at the same time.
DVSIdeveloped the Net-2000™-P25 VCU to package thelatest
softwareinto a hardwareplatformthatdoes notrequirelicensing
fees or royalties. With off-the-shelf availability the Net-2000™-
P25 VCU provides cost effective voice compression without the
risks and engineering expenses associated with new product
development.
