The PRI goes right into the T100P. I forgot if the T100P is the one with more than 1xT1, if so, the 2nd T1 in the T100P goes to the Channel Bank.

So... I would need as you noted two T100P cards or a T400P. The T1 goes into the * Server and the second port of a T400P goes back to the asterisk server. Then the extensions get broken out from the Channel bank?

Is this the only way to handle extensions... This turns a 4 port T1 card into a 2 port card... Is this the suggested method?

Either way will work. Getting the T400 four port card gives you room to grow, but getting 2 T100P single port cards saves you about $500.> Is this the only way to handle extensions... This turns a 4 port T1 card > into a 2 port card... Is this the suggested method? > > Geoff >
Ok.. Let me pose a question regarding this configuration. Lets say you have the ISP bring in a full T1 and they split it half voice half data. They would usually do this in a channel bank on site... So in this scenrio... You have the Channel Bank from the ISP where they split the channels. Then from that it goes into the asterisk for 12 channels of voice. Then from asterisk to another Channel Bank to break out the fxs extensions.... It appears that the T1 Digium cards can split voice and data, but I would not want data traffic going through the * server...

I would suggest you stay away from a Bank Channel to receive the Telco T1. It is just using extra equipment which makes things more complex. Hope you subscribe to the KISS principle, I do.

Going between 2 PRI will not drop any data bits. Going between a PRI and robbed bit signaling T1 will possibly change a data bit every sixth frame (.75 m seconds) but this should not noticeably effect the performance of a 56K dial up modem. (What really effects the performance is adding another A/D conversion.)
