A method of operating a network server, such as a mobile application gateway, connect devices on a cellular or carrier network with individual networks, such as enterprise voice and data networks or residential networks. The effects of the present invention are far reaching in terms of transferring effective call control from the cellular network into the control of the individual network, such as the enterprise, and enabling new business models for the purchase of cellular service from a public cellular carrier by an enterprise.

A mobile application gateway configured to interconnect mobile communication devices on a cellular network with an enterprise network is provided. The mobile application gateway includes a voice and data signaling gateway configured to provide routing functionalities, service functionalities and admission control. A gateway GPRS support node (GGSN) is configured to establish a secure data session between one or more of the mobile communication devices and the enterprise network by establishing a GPRS tunneling protocol (GTP) tunnel between a carrier-hosted serving GPRS support node (SGSN) and the GGSN.

Embodiments of this application disclose an optical network unit and a PoE power supply system. The optical network unit in embodiments of this application includes a conductive connection terminal, a switch module, a network transformer, a first voltage conversion module, and a network interface connector. The conductive connection terminal is configured to be connected to a power over Ethernet PoE power supply device, and the conductive connection terminal is connected to the network transformer.

Novel tools and techniques are provided for implementing originating number or address -based route determination and routing. In various embodiments, a computing system may receive, from a first router among a plurality of routers in a first network operated by a first service provider, first SIP data, the first SIP data indicating a request to initiate a SIP-based media communication session between a calling party at an originating address in an originating network and a called party at a terminating address in a terminating network. The computing system may determine a communication route among a plurality of routes through the plurality of routers in the first network for establishing the SIP-based media communication session, based at least in part on the originating address, and may establish the SIP-based media communication session between the calling party and the called party via the determined communication route.

Methods and architectures for improving operation of 9-1-1 and other emergency services networks. Enriched data (e.g., text messages, videos, phase II location information, etc.) may be transmitted to a PSAP via a secondary communication channel (i.e., data), wherein the primary communication channel is a voice telephony trunk. Disclosed embodiments may increase the speed with which accurate location information is made available to improve call routing accuracy and decrease dispatch time. Some embodiments may also enable continued operation of legacy emergency services systems during and after transition to next generation systems.

A first network device determines configuration information of a target flexible Ethernet (FlexE) group that needs to be adjusted, and adjusts the target FlexE group synchronously with a second network device based on the configuration information of the target FlexE group. The second network device communicates with the first network device through a physical layer link in the target FlexE group. The configuration information of the target FlexE group includes a backup FlexE group number and a backup FlexE map of the target FlexE group, and the backup FlexE map includes information about the physical layer link in the target FlexE group. The first network device and the second network device perform synchronous adjustment. In this way, embodiments of this application provide a management solution for losslessly and dynamically adjusting a FlexE group, to avoid impact on a service and implement FlexE group adjustment in various scenarios.

A system, server, and method of DTMF detection in a VoIP network.

Methods of combining semi-persistent resource allocation and dynamic resource allocation are provided. Packets, such as VoIP packets, are transmitted on the uplink and downlink using respective semi-persistent resources. For each mobile device, awake periods and sleep periods are defined. The semi-persistent resources are aligned with the awake periods so that most of the time the mobile device can turn off its wireless access radio during the sleep periods. In addition, signalling to request, and to allocate, resources for additional packets are transmitted during the awake periods, and the resources allocated for the additional packets are within the awake windows.
