Hi all, I am trying to setup Asterisk here in Japan in my office. However I am having a hard time finding hardware that is supported. I tried Voicetronix but they said that they are too busy to create a driver. If anyone has had success with any particular hardware please let me know. I plan to have 4-5 outside lines. Thanks! Jason
Jason - I believe the Sangoma T1/E1/J1 boards may work in Japan, I will check and see if they offer driver support for J1, I do not know of an analog solution.

Sorry for my ignorance, but what is J1? I actually hope to use Softbanks fiber-based IPtel service, but I believe they require VoIP TA so I guess the end result is just a standard analog line.

If IPTel uses a VoIP TA(voice over IP terminal adapter), you might want to check into the type of signaling they use. It sounds like they might be using SIP, H323, or MGCP to deliver the service. In that case you might be able to swap the TA for asterisk with no or minimal trouble. Then you are free to provision your side of the link as you wish. -- Steven Critchfield <critch@basesys.com>
I asked Softbank and it seems that using SIP etc directly is not an option. Something to do with theVoIP-TA being used for communications between the providers "call-agent".

Eicon Diva Server BRI = ISDN I think.. JAson Leo Ann Boon wrote:> > > Jason Frisch wrote: > >> Hi all, >> >> I am trying to setup Asterisk here in Japan in >> my office.

Has anyone tried Sipura products such as the 3000 in Japan? Jason Steven Critchfield wrote:>On Mon, 2005-01-31 at 12:53 +0900, Jason Frisch wrote: > > >>Sorry for my ignorance, but what is J1?
