asterisk users - Dec 2007 - Using Asterisk to connect 2 locations with legacy PBX

Hello.

I am going through the documentation and trying to find if asterisk can help me
in my case. It is quite difficult to find answer because I do not know the exact
question.
I have two location. Each in different country. Both locations have Siemens
HiPath - different type and software. I can not use card that would allow me to
connect those PBXs using SIP. But I have some free ISDN and analog ports in both
PBXs. Is it possible to use Asterisk on each side with some ISDN or analog card
to connect to each PBX and enable users to call through the "asterisk
shortcut"? The users would not dial +country code whole number, but for
example 99 + internal number in second location to use Asterisk instead of
conventional telecom line. Could this be done using Asterisk? What should I look
for in documentation?

Thank you

Best regards

Yes Asterisk feets your needs 100%.

You need 2 Asterisk each one with Telephony cards (ISDN or Analog) and I
would recommend you to setup an IAX trunk to interconnect both servers.

Each Asterisk will act as a Media Gateway.

Look for  IAX trunk over the wiki it's all there.

good luck.

Probably yes. You should be able to connect Asterisk to
the HiPath using a PRI card.

What should I look for in documentation?

You need to read the manual of your HiPath to find out how
to configure the routing and if it supports PRI.
