First off, please forgive me as I'm very new to Cisco products, and came into some information that might lead me to believe the VG200 product will do what I need.
I have a private microwave IP-based network and the need to transport bi-directional audio across it. This is for two-way radio communications (RoIP).
What I'd like to know is, can two Cisco VG200's equipped with VIC-2E&M cards be set up to work back-to-back (what goes in one on one end of the link comes out of the other on the opposite end and vice-versa), or do I need to have a Call Manager in between them?
Any help would be appreciated. I realize I can only buy these aftermarket, but I don't want to buy them if they won't do the job.
Our IT specialist is familiar with programming Cisco products, but he's never worked with the VG200 specifically. Since I'm heading up the project, I'm tasked with asking all the questions.
Lastly, if these gateways can be configured "back to back", what's the latency like as far as the audio is concerned across a dedicated 10MBPS network with nothing else but these devices on it? Is it pretty much instantaneous, or is there some significant delay?
Any help is most sincerely appreciated.
