Dialogic® HMP Interface Boards (DNI Boards) enable all the flexibility of host-based media resources (scalable and licensed in single-unit increments) to mate with the network interface, providing developers and system integrators with a new level of configuration flexibility and cost efficiency. This is a departure from traditional media span products that require onboard digital signal processors (DSPs) to provide media and audio transcoding resources, which creates fixed costs and often fixed or limited configurations of media to complement the network interface density.
