[Asterisk-Users] Best Communications Line for VoIP
We are putting in an Asterisk VoIP solution and was wondering what the best communications medium would be for this implementation. We are going to need 20 telephone lines in/out of our business. We currently have a data T1. Could we put another data T1 to use for Asterisk, or would it be better to put in a Voice T1 or a PRI line? Also, when we do put this T1 or PRI line in, what would be the best equipment to use with the Asterisk box? Any other recommendations would be appreciated?

If you need to make calls in and out to the PSTN, you need a T1/PRI. Unless you send the calls to other VoIP provider.

If this is something mission-critical, I would *highly* recommend going with a voice T1 from your telco, especially for 20 lines, when a full T1 is 23b channels. I mean, you can do a hosted PBX type configuration, as well. So much depends on the specific situation. -- Tom On 11/22/05, Andy Kuo <akuoca@gmail.com> wrote:> If you need to make calls in and out to the PSTN, you need a T1/PRI.
