OpenStage Product Family (V7 R3 or Later)
8.1.1 Gigabit variant of the OpenStage workpoints
The connection variant CorNet IP is also available in a Gigabit variant.
The integrated Ethernet switch of this OpenStage workpoint enables the workstation PC to be
connected to the local network for example. In the Gigabit variant larger data packets (example:
video or audio data packets) can also be transferred to the workstation PC which is connected
via the OpenStage workpoint to the network
This enables costs to be saved in the area of inhouse cabling and the IP network and at the
same time allows the performance of the network to be increased. In addition the use of a Gigabit
network gives an improved voice quality. This is especially evident for calls made in speakerphone
mode, since the data-intensive echo compensation of the OpenStage workpoints in
conjunction with the full duplex characteristic in a Gigabit network can be executed more quickly
and smoothly in a Gigabit network.
To enable the Gigabit Ethernet switch to be usefully employed, it is vital for the entire corporate
network to support Gigabit technology. It is vital to use type “CAT 5E” or even better type “CAT
6” network cables to connect the workpoints. Older types of cable may under some circumstances
cause significant speed losses.
