The TE212P offers an on-board DSP-based echo cancelation module. It supports E1, T1, and J1 environments and is selectable on a per-card or per-port basis.

The TE212P is a bundling of Digium's leading TE210P product and the new VPM450M Octasic DSP-based echo cancelation module. The TE212P is Digium's and the industry's first two-port digital card featuring hardware-based echo cancelation. The new module enables users to eliminate echo tails up to 128ms or 1024 taps across all 64 channels in E1 mode or 48 channels in T1/J1 modes. Further, this module takes advantage of the Octasic Voice Quality Enhancement to provide superior sound quality on all calls.

Digium has designed the TE212P to be fully compatible with existing software applications and it is fully integrated with the Asterisk Open Source PBX/IVR platform. Also, the open source driver supports an API interface for custom application development. With the combination of Digium Hardware and Asterisk software, numerous combinations of telephony configurations are possible. From the traditional PBX to VoIP Gateways, Digium solutions are paving the way for a new generation of worldwide communications.

The TE212P supports industry standard telephony and data protocols, including Primary Rate ISDN (both N. American and Standard Euro) protocol families for voice, PPP, Cisco, HDLC, and Frame Relay data modes. Both line-side and trunk-side interfaces are supported, also included are advanced call features.

The TE212P supports a 3.3v PCI slot only - typically available on newer motherboards and in 64-bit PCI bus architectures.

Certifications for the TE212P are pending.

The TE212P is for use only with a 3.3 volt PCI slot, typically available on newer motherboards and in 64-bit PCI bus architectures. The TE207P should be ordered for use with a 5 volt PCI slot.
