AMTELCO Adds Unique Voice Distortion Feature to XDS Boards

McFarland, WI – August 2005 – AMTELCO XDS is pleased to announce that a new voice distortion feature is now available on the XDS H.110 CompactPCI and XDS H.100 PCI Conference Boards.

This new feature, which was originally developed for large chat centers in China, provides for the capability to disguise a person’s voice while participating in a conference. Voice distortion adjustments can be made individually to one or more active participants of a conference. The distortion settings can be adjusted dynamically while the conference remains active.

Using the voice distortion feature, the XDS H.110 CompactPCI Conference Board has 256 ports, and the XDS H.100 PCI Conference Board has 128 ports. If the voice distortion feature is not used, the XDS H.110 CompactPCI Conference Board has 512 ports, and the XDS H.100 PCI Conference Board has 256 ports.

When using voice distortion, all existing features, such as DTMF tone clamping, attenuation, and conference switching are available. Distortion settings can be preset by the user’s application, or can be controlled by the conference participant by use of their telephone’s DTMF keypad.
