RAD appear to have bucketloads of products which bridge between various interfaces (E1, BRI, POTS) and their own TDMoIP protocol. The attractive thing about them for me is their availability in Australia. The voip wiki says not much about it (http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/TDMoIP), and certainly nothing about if there is any way to get Asterisk to talk TDMoIP. Despite the name, TDMoIP appears to be able to use Ethernet frames directly instead of IP too. Does anyone know anything more about using Asterisk and TDMoIP together? Thanks James

I want to do it the other way around.

I guess your answer is an indirect "to my knowledge, it hasn't been done". The fonebridge would do what I want, but I can't get it in Australia, and if I imported one, I wouldn't legally be able to attach it to the phone system. I think the RAD offering is cheaper too. Thanks James

Thanks again for your input. James
