OPENLOG4 Hi-Z PCI CARD

 

 
Pricing | Features and Benefits | Technical Specifications

Our OpenLog4 card offers a highly integrated hardware solution, that combines high impedance line isolation and a DSP processor on a single PCI card. The card is specifically targeted for developers of PC based Call Logging/Recording systems and run under Linux, FreeBSD and Windows 98/2000/XP/NT.

Voicetronix understands the advantages in decreasing application development time and minimising the time to market of end-user solutions for its stakeholders. Our OpenLog cards support a free commercial grade Open Source Voice Logger application that enables users to quickly customise and deploy Call Logging/Recording applications for a fraction of the price of commercially available Logging solutions.

All you need is a PC, an OpenLog card and the Voice Logger software to build your own multi-port Call Logging/Recording system.

Typical environments for Call Logging/Recording applications include:

  • The finance and banking industry where calls are recorded to verify transaction dealings.
  • Call centres and help desks that monitor calls to be used as customer service training aids.
  • Emergency response services where calls answered are often life threatening in nature.
  • Corrective institutions that monitor calls for illegal activities.
  • Dictation services for Legal and Medical practitioners.

FEATURES AND BENEFITS
 

The OpenLog cards offers the application developer:
  • Integrated high impedance ports that are suitable for parallel connection to the PSTN line or analogue PBX extensions. There is no requirement for separate high impedance interface modules that plague users of other logging hardware.
  • Customisations can be made to support microphone line levels. Ask
  • An opportunity to scale to higher density PC based Call Logging/Recording systems by simply installing multiple OpenLog cards within a PC chassis.
  • A comprehensive open source API that provides total control over the design of feature-rich Call Logging/Recording applications.
  • Support of leading operating systems including Linux, FreeBSD and Windows 98/2000/NT.
  • A wide selection of robust recording triggers to suit most application requirements including:
    • Line voltage detection.
    • VOX (energy level threshold).
    • DTMF.
    • Programmable tone detection.
  • An Automatic Gain Control (AGC) module, enabling the OpenLog cards to record both parties at comparable recording levels. Without this module the far-end caller signal level is usually much lower than the near-end caller signal level.
  • A Programmable Software Gain control function, enabling users to easily increase or decrease the recording levels to suit line characteristics through an API call. It extends the recording range of the OpenLog cards - suitable for line conditions that exhibit very low or high signal levels.
  • Integrated Caller Identification enabling recordings to be tagged by telephone number.
  • Support of a free commercial grade LGPL-licensed Voice Logger application.
Open Source API
  • Comprehensive Open Source API that supports synchronous and asynchronous programming models and offers total design control over the call recording application.
  • Developers can make customisations/enhancements to the Open Source API to suit their requirements.

Open Source Voice Logger Software
  • Quickly build voice logging applications running on Linux.
  • Typical commercially available Call Logging solutions cost around US$1000/channel. For the price of a PC and an OpenLog card, users can deploy commercial grade Call Logging/Recording applications for a fraction of the price (US$150-US$250/channel).
  • Check out the free LGPL-licensed Voice Logger software for feature information!
Runs on Linux, FreeBSD and Windows
  • Our Open Source software architecture enables easy porting to other operating systems. Currently the card supports Linux, FreeBSD and Windows 98/2000/XP/NT.
  • Linux and FreeBSD users can now build their own Call Logging/Recording systems running on their choice of open source operating system. The majority of commercially available Loggers run on Windows platforms.
  • Ability to maintain Voice Logging applications remotely as open source operating systems offer reliable remote administration.
