300-070 Question #280: Real Exam Question with Answer & Explanation

The correct answer is D: This Media Termination Point type does not require any DSP resources on the Cisco router. A software-based MTP in CUCM runs entirely in software on the CUCM server or a registered device, requiring no hardware DSP resources on a Cisco router (Choice D). It can also perform basic codec conversion between G.711 mu-law (used in North America) and G.711 a-law (used intern

Question

Which two are characteristics of a Cisco Unified Communications Manager software based Media Termination Point? (Choose two)

Options

AThis Media Termination Point type is typically used for RSVP agent configurations or Cisco
BThe codec and packetization of both call legs must be identical
CDSP resources are required
DThis Media Termination Point type does not require any DSP resources on the Cisco router
EIt can provide G.711 mu-law to G.711 a-law conversion and vice versa.

Explanation

A software-based MTP in CUCM runs entirely in software on the CUCM server or a registered device, requiring no hardware DSP resources on a Cisco router (Choice D). It can also perform basic codec conversion between G.711 mu-law (used in North America) and G.711 a-law (used internationally), making it useful in international deployments (Choice E). Hardware MTPs use DSP resources and are typically used for RSVP agent configurations. Software MTPs support only G.711 variants - they cannot transcode between fundamentally different codecs (e.g., G.711 to G.729), which is a hardware MTP/transcoder function.
