Hi Friends, I want to implement VOIP PBX service in my office. I have 10 computers and a server. All computers are Pentium IV processors with 512 MB RAM. All employee computers have Windows 2000 Professional OS and Server computer Windows 2000 Professional and Fedora Core 5 Linux OS. I have a VOIP phone and have registered with VoIP service provider. Now, I want to implement VOIP PBX facility to all of my systems. The structure for the same is: PSTN (Phone call) ---> VOIP phone ---> Server system ---> -------> Employee 1 PC (Softphone i.e., Headphones with Mic) -------> Employee 2 PC (Softphone i.e., Headphones with Mic) -------> Employee 3 PC (Softphone i.e., Headphones with Mic) -------> ------ -------> ------ -------> Employee 10 PC (Softphone i.e., Headphones with Mic) and vice versa. How can I implement this? Is it possible to implement this using "Asterisk" software? If It can be implemented using "Asterisk" software, What softwares I should install in Server and Employee PC's? Is there any need of buying extra hardware? Please reply me. Thank you Thanks & Regards, Chandra. --------------------------------- Talk is cheap. Use Yahoo! Messenger to make PC-to-Phone calls.

Yes it is possible - check out the Asterisk manual or nice book from O'Reilly - Asterisk PBX (The Furute of telephony) Marcel Crazy Boy wrote:> Hi Friends, > > I want to implement VOIP PBX service in my office.

I don't recommend using softphones for your employee PCs. It looks like an attractive solution at first (from a cost perspective) but in reality it's not very practical (at least that was my experience). Buying 5 x 2 port ATAs will cost you around $300-$350 which is not really expensive considering the kind of powerful PBX you will have at your disposal. I would have suggested some Digium hardware for the FXS (extensions) but I think it will be a lot more expensive (for 10 extensions) than the ATAs solution. You could also look into a channel bank, but again it will be more expensive than the 5 ATAs. As for the FXO (incoming/outgoing PSTN) I recommend buying Digium hardware (TDM400P). Hope this helps, and good luck! Regards, Gonzalo.
Hi Friends, Thank you for your quick response. I have successfully implemented Intercom (Dialling within my office LAN) using Asterisk. To implement this, I am using X-Lite Softphone. Now, I want to make calls to US using VoIP Asterisk. I have registered with Vebtel (VoIP IP Telephony Service provider). They had given me one VoIP Modem called "Voice Finder AP 200" and the below values: Inbound Number: 123456789 Public IP Number: 55.23.789.145 Password: xyz (These values are dummy values) Currently we are making US calls using VoIP provided by "Vebtel". Now, I want to make US calls using this Vebtel service from Asterisk. How can I do this? I am unable to understand where to give above mentioned values? What configuration files I should use to implement this using the Vebtel SIP provider? Do I need to provide any more values to implement this using Asterisk from Vebtel? Waiting for your quick response. Thank you. Regards, Chandra. --------------------------------- Yahoo! Messenger with Voice.

Chandra, In all honesty if they are proprietary and you want to use them you will need a FXO card. Alternatively there are a few good termination providers out there that are inexpensive. The top 3 most inexpensive that come to mind are: Plainvoip - http://www.plainvoip.com <http://www.plainvoip.com/> Domestic starting at 1.1c VoipJet - http://www.voipjet.com <http://www.voipjet.com/> Domestic starting at 1.3c NuFone - http://www.nufone.net <http://www.nufone.net/> Domestic starting at 2c (I believe) Anyone of these providers can supply you with USA and also international dialing. _.::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::._ Brian Fertig - dCAP, MSCE, CCNA, DCSE, RHCE Data/Telecom Engineer IT Administrator Planet Telecom, Inc Tampa, FL Office o: +1.813.864.3161x107 f: +1.813.881.9762 d: +1.813.864.3164 SIP URI: 107@sip.planet-telecom.com ________________________________ From: asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Crazy Boy Sent: Monday, May 08, 2006 8:43 AM To: asterisk-users@lists.digium.com Subject: [Asterisk-Users] Hi...Please help me Hi Friends, Thank you for your quick response.
