| RAD granted U.S. patent for TDM over IP technology |
18 May 2004 - RAD Data Communications Ltd
U.S. patent 6,731,649 describes a method for transporting one or more TDM links over packet switched IP networks. A TDMoIP gateway adapts segments of the constant rate TDM using AAL1 and thereafter encapsulates them in UDP/IP packets. A second TDMoIP gateway at the destination regenerates the clock, strips the UDP/IP headers and delivers a synchronous bit stream. This solution also provides an adaptive clock for clock transfer across the entire network. |

| Negotiating the Supply Chain Minefield new booklet on managing component obsolescence |
23 January 2004 - Component Obsolescence Group (COG)
New guidance on managing the issue of component obsolescence to maximise supply chain efficiency has been issued by the Component Obsolescence Group, in the third of its series of information booklets. According to COG, if a component within a piece of equipment becomes obsolete, failure to get suitable replacement parts quickly or at all could incur considerable costs. It could mean that the equipment has to go out of service or parts of it may need to be re-designed, and in extreme cases, it could significantly damage an organisation's reputation and customer relationships. |
