    Radio over IP (RoIP) allows connecting radio networks over IP networks while retaining existing radio equipment. Vocality supports RoIP with various products like voice cards, the BASICS Radio Relay, and BASICS Four Wire. These products can interconnect simple to complex radio networks over any IP or serial network and reduce bandwidth usage. Key RoIP features supported include silence suppression, voice activation detection, manual PTT activation, and bandwidth optimization.

    Radio over IP (RoIP)


    THE PROBLEM
    If radios need to be connected over large geographical separations or you need to
    improve the economy, reliability and interoperability of your existing radio networks, it
    is best practice to choose Radio over IP.
    Radio over IP gives you a means of interconnection just like Voice over IP (VoIP), whilst
    retaining your existing radio equipment, but with extras such as the signalling needed
    to control push-to-talk radios.
    To implement RoIP you will need units that can interface your radios to the
    IP network, but RoIP is not standard, so which units will deliver you the best RoIP
    implementation?
     
    VOCALITY SOLUTION
    All Vocality four wire devices support RoIP, which means you could choose any Vocality
    Professional range voice cards, the BASICS Radio Relay, BASICS Four Wire and
    BASICS Hybrid. Your choice of unit would depend on factors such as the number of
    connections needed and other capabilities the unit would provide alongside RoIP.
    Simple to complex radio networks can be interconnected over any intermediate IP or
    serial network.  At the same time bandwidth can be reduced and the quality of
    interconnects increased.
     
    FEATURE SUMMARY
    Vocality supports Radio Over IP (RoIP) in a multitude of ways, from simple point to point for extending radio networks over
    intermediate links such as satellite or Internet, to complex networks using a central media server.  Devices can also be used
    as standalone media gateways converting audio radio signals to IP SIP. 
     

    Connecting radios with other network elements via a SIP


    Radio networks efficiently combined over satellite
    server

    Connect radios to a network controlled by a WAVE Media


    Extending a radio network around a local site
    Server
     
    Enhancements coming soon:
     

    Multicast is supported on all of the Vocality four Direct headset connection is supported
    wire devices using VOS8 software. by the new BASICS Hybrid units.

    RoIP FEATURES IN VOCALITY PRODUCTS
    Silence Suppression: To reduce the amount of bandwidth used, silence suppression can be enabled on the devices.
    Voice Activation Detection (VAD): Voice Activation Detection (VAD) can be used to detect active audio packets on both
    the radio connection and also the SIP connection in order to activate the Push to Talk (PTT) on the radio for it to transmit. 
     
    Manual Activation: As well as VAD, manual activation can be used to key the remote radios.  This enables the units to be
    used with push-to-talk (PTT) headsets or operations center systems.
     
    PTT Timers: Adjustable timers are available on the Vocality system to prevent bouncing of the PTT to the radio and also
    from the radios falsely keying each other due to the squelch feedback experienced on some radios.
     
    Switchable Full Duplex / Simplex Operation: A feature is available to force the network into a simplex operation by having
    the ability to kill all receive audio whilst the PTT is active.
     
    Bandwidth Optimization: The Vocality devices can be used as standalone media converters to interconnect with a larger
    network or they can be used as a pair, or hub and spoke, in order to reduce bandwidth and increase the quality of the link
    by removing jitter.
     
    Powered/amplified audio circuits: If you are using radio sets which do not have line level inputs and outputs, you should
    choose the BASICS Hybrid, which can directly accept microphone inputs and drive microphone output levels. The
    additional gain is in the analogue domain, so as to avoid degrading signal to noise ratios, and it is switchable and
    adjustable, to allow the port to be used with normal line level inputs too.
     
    RTP unicast streaming support: If you need to minimize delay and avoid loss of audio when devices start transmitting, this
    will allow transmission of audio without the need for SIP signalling, via media servers and devices which also support
    RTP unicast.
     
    RTP multicast streaming support: If you need to minimize bandwidth usage. In a network with one media server and
    several devices, each device would normally need to be sent audio independently, even when the content is the same. If
    your media server supports this protocol you are able to send only once and have each device receive the same audio.
     
    Direct headset connection: Either a microphone or radio set can be directly connected to the BASICS Hybrid. A DC bias
    can be provided for microphone only operation, controllable from software. Most popular headsets can be used, though
    they will need to be wired appropriately to match our ports.
     
    Compatible Media Conferencing Systems
    BASICS Radio Relay has been tested successfully with the following media servers:
     l Twisted Pair WAVE
    The following SIP Gateways have been successfully used to connect radio networks to phone subscribers by using the
    BASICS Radio Relay:
     l Cisco Call Manager
     l Cisco Call Manager Express
     l Asterisk
     l 3CX
    Compatible Radios
    Whilst all radios should be compatible, Vocality BASICS Radio Relay has been successfully tested with Harris, Thales,
    Motorola and Icom models.
