AETA: Interoperability of Double Streaming with RFC5888 Standard

Le Plessis-Robinson, November 2024 – AETA, a leading player in unified communication technologies and audio streaming, announced a key development in its double streaming network this quarter.

After several years of using bonding technology and being a pioneer in double streaming, AETA now offers a new way to secure transmissions while adhering to the RFC5888 standard, ensuring better interoperability between different codec brands, even in the establishment of complex AoIP links that require network redundancy.

This advancement allows clients to standardize their workflows without compromising transmission quality.

Simplicity and Optimized Performance
The RFC5888 standard enables AETA to simplify the user experience by offering easier access through a single SIP account. This development allows the establishment of a SIP link over two different networks without the need for two distinct SIP communications, and therefore without requiring two different SIP accounts.

The user interface integrates this new feature into the same menu as the other bonding and double streaming features, providing a smooth and simplified management of connections. Clients can easily select the type of security they want to implement, choosing between AETA’s double streaming solution or the RFC5888 standard according to their needs. The interface has also been redesigned to be more intuitive, with optimized navigation and a better user experience.

Advantages and Disadvantages of RFC5888 Double Streaming
Advantages:

• Improved interoperability: Thanks to the RFC5888 standard, AETA ensures extended compatibility between different codec brands, making it easier to exchange streams between various devices and reducing limitations tied to proprietary technologies.
• Ease of use: A single SIP account to manage multiple network connections, making flow management simpler and more efficient, especially in complex environments.

Disadvantages:

• Risk of failure: Although the RFC5888 standard enhances reliability by offering network redundancy, since only one SIP account is used, a failure of this account could interrupt the link, which would not be the case with AETA’s initial “double streaming” technology that uses redundant SIP accounts.
  “This development meets the growing demand for simpler and more interoperable communication solutions, while ensuring the most reliable AoIP link,” explains Yann Vonarburg, Director at AETA Audio Systems.

AETA: A Vision for the Future
AETA continues to lead innovation in unified communication with solutions that are increasingly simple, powerful, and accessible. The adoption of the RFC5888 standard demonstrates AETA’s commitment to providing reliable, high-quality solutions to meet the demands of a constantly evolving market.
