Whereas the perceived
need for a product that was capable of individual
CAS circuit recovery was considered to be no more
than a “nice to have” feature by the
major Trading Organisations throughout 2005, the
perceived increase of Risk following 7/7 and more
recently the increasing terrorist threats as well
as a possible ‘flu pandemic has transformed
a “nice to have” into a “must have” for
many of these Trading financial institutions.
Consequently, GemaTech, in conjunction with two
leading international banks is in the process of
developing a truly unique solution for the recovery
of individual CAS circuits which will have the
same level of flexibility and control as GemaTech’s
BCMLITE products, which provide for the recovery
of inbound calls to individual DDI numbers delivered
via PSTN circuits. Primarily located within the
sanctity and security of a carrier’s exchange
or co-location site, the CSM unit will be capable
of redirecting what are normally permanently “nailed-up” connected
64 kbps channels seamlessly to multiple distributed
destinations, transparently via the Public Service
Telephony Network (PSTN).
In addition, 64 kbps channels can be aggregated
to create additional bandwidth as required. Each
channel can recover multiple types of data, such
as voice, data, fax, video or encrypted traffic.
During an invocation, GemaTech’s CSM unit
will initiate an initial PSTN call between the
two parties and retain the open circuit as a ‘nailed
up’ open circuit for all subsequent “calls”,
providing a continuous open channel thereby eliminating
initial connection delays for subsequent calls
normally incurred when using the PSTN and thus
ideal for use in Dealing Rooms.
The CSM unit will also be capable of monitoring
PRI’s within the network for failure and
have the ability to instantaneously re-route the
individual 64 kbps channels to the original or
alternative destinations often without users noticing.
Comprehensive management and control features
will provide feedback to managers as to the status
of any failure.
