2.4.7	DMC (Direct Media Connection) Channels

When the DMC interworking feature is active in an IP network between HiPath 3000 and HiPath 4000, gateway connections are set up over DMC channels. From the user's perspective, a DMC channel is a gateway channel that provides a gateway connection between HiPath 3000 and HiPath 4000. The fact that a DMC channel must serve both a master and slave connection results in a DSP channel reduction.

Note: The number of gateway channels available (DSP channels) is reduced as soon as the DMC interworking feature is activated with HiPath 3000/5000 Manager E. In this case, a Digital Signal Processor (DSP) can only provide up to 80% of all possible channels (for example: 6 instead of 8 DSP channels, 12 instead of 16 DSP channels, etc.).
