new h.246 annex-e proposal..

[Edgar Martinez [1]]

Dear Edgar,

The new annex is H.246 Annex-E not h.246 Annex-J, which is essentially a
mapping of MAP (mobile application part) of GSM or ANSI-41 or PDC networks
to H.225.0.

Please refer to Intel's proposals (APC-1671, APC-1672)at ITU-SG16 reflector
(Red Bank Meeting) for more details.

Edgar Martinez's Question:
Does Intel foresee the same concepts, that is using an adjunct (switched/IP)
Gateway used with the legacy Class-5 switches PSTN? to support H.323
terminals on Class 5 switches?

Paul Reddy's Answer:
Intel's focus is on interworking PLMNs with H.323 networks at MAP level.
Other groups already working on the PSTN interworking with H.323 networks,
which may provide the support of H.323 terminals on Class 5 Switches.

Subject: Question on Intels new annex-j h.246 proposal..
Importance: High


Dear Paul,

An offical new annex-j for h.246 has been
opened,
proposed by Intel. Which is Interworking
H.323 terminals with the legacy GSM and ANSI
wireless
networks. What this is proposing is a
(MSC+VLR)
Gateway that provides H.323 access to the
Public Land
Mobile Network (PLMN). All the voice and
supplementary services will still be provided
by the Legacy
MSCs. And the data services only by H.323.
APC
1671 "H.323 with USIM and PLMN Interworking"
and
APC 1672 "User Mobility and Service Mobility
Services for
Wireless Subscribers  with H.323 terminals
accessing
MM over IP and PLMN Networks"

Question:

Does Intel foresee the same concepts, that is
using an adjunct (swithed/IP) Gateway used
with the legacy Class-5 switches PSTN? to
support
H.323 terminals on Class 5 switches?

Thanks,
Edgar Martinez
