I have used the handytone 488 from grandstream in the past.... However I need to be able to send a number to a unit like the 488 and have it dial out. Is there a unit like this available? Basically a 488 unit that can place a call out. Jerry

I don't know what you mean by "send a number". I like the GS 286 and 486, they work well and besides a few bricks over time or firmware upgrade, they are reliable. In the web interface, you can set it to automatically dial a number when it goes off-hook which may be what you are looking for. Makes for a good way to provide dialtone to a door phone or PA. -- Thanks, Steve Totaro +18887771888 (Toll Free) +12409381212 (Cell) +12024369784 (Skype) -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I am talking SIP to the ATA and want to send a dial command with any number to it. Dial(SIP/myata/somenumber) and have that device come off hook and place the call to the somenumber provided. Do devices like this exist? I need more than just dial tone- I want to call the number I send to the device. Thanks, Jerry

Basically a 488 unit that can place > a call out.You are looking for a "Media Gateway". Audiocodes is a well known manufacturer of these, but this is not a recommendation of any kind. There are also "Channel Banks" that support this (ones with FXO ports instead of FXS) HTH, -- Shimi -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
