AlphaCom icon 300px.png

The Mediant 600 has the capability to transcode a SIP call from e.g. G711µ-law to G729. Here are some examples using the Mediant 600 to transcode G711µ-law to G729.

The examples shown are between:

  • AlphaCom XE and Cisco Call Manager
  • AlphaCom XE and AudioCodes MP-114/118
  • AlphaCom XE and Mobile VoIP GSM Gateway MV-370
Configuration example


AlphaCom Configuration

How to set up a SIP Trunk in the AlphaCom is described here: SIP trunk node - configuration

Mediant 600 Configuration

A license SIP to SIP Mediation and Routing Application (SW/IP2IP/15) is required. With this license, the Mediant600 has 30 active Media Channels that can support 15 transcoding simultane sessions.

Restore to factory default settings

Reset Button


  • With a paper clip, press and hold down the Reset button (located on the CPU Module) for at least 12 seconds (no more than 25 seconds)
  • The device restores to factory default settings

Access to the embedded web server

Home Page


The default Network parameter of the Mediant 600:
  • IP Adress : 10.1.10.10
  • Subnet Mask : 255.255.0.0
  • Default Gateway : 0.0.0.0


Connect your PC directly to the device, using an Ethernet Crossover cable


Before the PC can access to the Mediant 600, the IP address of the PC must be changed to match the same subnet (e.g 10.1.10.11)


To access the embedded web server, start your internet browser (e.g. Internet Explorer) and in the address field enter 10.1.10.10


You will be prompted for a username and password (default):
  • Username: Admin
  • Password: Admin


The Home Page page should now be displayed


Note: For the rest of configuration used the tree menu in Full mode

IP Configuration

Initial configuration

IP Settings


In the "IP Settings" page (Configuration tab -> Network Settings menu -> IP Settings page) enter :
  • IP Adress
  • Subnet Mask
  • Default Gateway
  • Click "Submit" to apply the changes
The IP address is immediately changed when pressing Submit, but it is not permanently stored
Without resetting or powering off the device, you need to log on to the Gateway using its new IP address in order to Burn the new IP address to flash:
  • Disconnect the PC from the Gateway
  • Connect the Gateway and PC to the LAN. The PC and Gateway must be on the same sub-net
  • Restore the PC’s IP address and subnet mask to what they originally were, and re-access the Gateway using the new assigned IP address
  • Click "Burn" to permanently apply the changes

Add Software Upgrade Key

The license for SIP IP2IP must be uploaded as a Software Upgrade Key.

Software Upgrade Key


In the "Software Upgrade Key Status" page (Management tab -> Software Update menu -> Software Upgrade Key page):
  • Enter the license key in the "Add a Software Upgrade Key" field
