A modem data aggregating gateway that supports modem relay functionality for permitting reliable switching of modem traffic between a VoIP network and a data packet switch Internet Protocol (IP) network, s.a. the Internet. The modem relay aggregator may receive modem data encapsulated as Voice over IP (VoIP) data packets in accordance with a Simple Reliable Protocol Transport (SRPT) mechanism. The packet data may be error corrected and/or decompressed before being repackaged for forwarding to the ultimate destination. In the event that the destination is itself an IP device, the modem relay aggregator may forward the packets directly over the IP network. As a result, if the destination of a modem call is an IP device (such as a Web site or other Internet-enabled device) the technique eliminates two points from a processing path in which digital signal processing (DSPs) would otherwise have to perform modem protocol processing. Otherwise, minimal modem reformatting can be performed at the aggregation point.

Device to terminate a modem relay channel directly to in IP network

A network device is disclosed. The network device has at least one port to receive modem over network signals. A router routes data associated with the modem over network signals received from an aggregator. The aggregator uncompresses the modem over network signals and sends the data associated with the signals to the router directly without relying upon a digital signal processor.

Modem relay aggregator device

Devices, softwares and methods selectively limit a duration of an individual modem-on hold session. A network device receives and holds data for an individualized on-hold timeout time limit for each user, such as an ISP subscriber.

Devices, softwares and methods for selectively limiting the duration of an individual Modem-On-Hold session

A network device is disclosed. The network device includes an incoming power port, an outgoing power port, an internal circuit, and a power storage system connected to the incoming power port, the outgoing power port and the internal circuit. In alternative embodiments, the device may include a power regenerator, a power detector and divider, or a power splitter.
