asterisk users - May 2005 - Public vs. Private Network

Hello -

 

I am looking at connecting 7 - 10 locations together using Asterisk and
possibly some VoIP gateway appliances.  I need to insure best voice
quality as these trunks will be used primarily for customer calls.  I am
considering implementing a full T1 frame relay circuit to each location
which can be done for a reasonable cost.  DSL and Cable are currently at
each location and setup for automatic failover.  Should I remove one of
my public connections and replace it with a private circuit for best
quality?

Thank you,


Dave

Point to Point connectivity if they are close enough. Only use
DSL/Cable if you have to since results may vary depnding on
location/route/utilization/ISP.

Does anyone else have info regarding the port speed matching the CIR?

To run VoIP over Frame Relay you need your Port Speed to be the same 
as your CIR.  Cisco has extensive docs about this, but I'm too lazy to 
look them up right now.
