l
lines and my 6 internal lines.

For the PC I was planning to use the smallest PC posible like a HP Proliant
Microserver  but it doesn=B4t have space for this PCI card.
Is there another way to interface to 3 external and 6 internal lines??

Thank you for your kind help

I think I have 3 PSTN lines because I can connect a normal telephone to them all
and make calls between each of them. We have 5 normal telephones and 1
panasonic. From what I got I need a PC=A0 and a of PCI card
to interface to my 3 external lines and my 6 internal lines.

For the PC I was planning to use the smallest PC posible like a HP=20
Proliant Microserver=A0 but it doesn=B4t have space for this PCI card.
Is there another way to interface to 3 external and 6 internal
lines?? Thank you for your kind

and you can avail all the features that proprietary system has.
If you want to integrate with any VoIP service
then a PC with Asterisk is enough or else if you want to integrate with PSTN
lines then you need FXO card to be installed, its a PCI card. Vendors like
Sangoma, Digium (from Asterisk) were selling these cards. And for internal for
your agents if you need analog hard phones then you need to have FXS card you
can avail these FXO and FXS cards in combination. These cards will fit in your
PCI slot of machine. Configuring these cards are also very easy.


If it is VoIP then you dont need
these cards simply install Asterisk in a PC and you are
done.=A0 <div

=A0 <p
class=3D"MsoNormal">Hi, My name is Francisco from M=E9xico.
Here, in my work we have a very very old panasonic PBX(12
years old). We are growing and we need to increase our external lines(from 3 to
4) and our internal lines(from 6 to 10). Besides we need voice mail and voice
menu too.


We asked for a quote to our panasonic dealer. The whole thing cost
about 4,500 dollars. My boss just saw a thing called
Asterisk this morning looking for options in Google. He asked my to investigate
what this thing called Asterisk is and if we could save some money using it
instead of the panasonic solution. So, here I am.


I have some experience as linux sysadmin(we have 1 oracle linux server
and 1 linux print server) nevertheless I don=B4t have any idea where and how to
start this evaluation? Please Would you
give us a clue where to see If Asterisk could work for us?


Thanks for your kind help.
