COMPATIBILITY TIP!
When two channels are required for transmission (i.e. for Stereo, J-Stereo, and Mono 128) an
"inverse multiplex" (IMUX) scheme must be used to break the standard MPEG data stream
into two streams for transmission.
In Layer-2, the Zephyr Xstream uses the CCS CDQ (TM) IMUX protocol. Most Layer-2
codecs support this method, allowing for compatibility among different codec manufacturers.
The Telos IMUX used in AAC and AAC-LD is published on our web site to support
interoperability with other manufacturers implementing AAC and AAC-LD

IMPORTANT!
The settings of the Sample Rate and Bit Rate (see below) are important as well as the
Transmit and Receive settings. Note that these must be matched between the two units
before the AUTO Receive mode will be able to function.
Note that if a transmission mode requiring two channels is used, and only one channel is
dialed, the AUTO setting will not be able to find a match.
The bit rate will normally be changed automatically on incoming calls as this information is
conveyed by the ISDN network.
