Downspeeding or Resynchronizing with RadVision via IP
Gateway

Your system has the ability to downspeed and resynchronize
correctly in an H.320 call with a RadVision system and vice versa.
The two systems resynchronize the call if an ISDN line is lost during
the call, if H.320 framing is lost, or if CRC errors are encountered
continuously. The call also downspeeds in the event of a
lower-speed, incoming call or when necessary to add another
outbound call to create a multipoint conference.
