So a software solution makes a great deal of sense and this software-based solution will come from a new Octasic subsidiary known as Octware.<\/div>\n<div style=\"MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt\">&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div style=\"MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt\">Software-based echo canceling is an economical $10\/port and works with Asterisk-based systems. The only negative to this approach is for systems that are underpowered. Asterisk is CPU intensive and echo canceling is as well. Still, if your hardware can handle it, a software-based solution may save you some money without sacrificing quality. And in this case, less filling really does sound great.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sounds Great, Less Filling &nbsp; Octasic is well known in the world of echo canceling &ndash; a market which is not discussed too often but is important for enabling crystal clear, echo-free conversations.
