We have been running around than 40 asterisk servers running on Debian Squeeze for last three years, handling traffic of more than few hundred thousand calls per day. Our setup's PRI-banks were using Redfone's Fonebridge. We had PRIs from multiple telephony providers. And Redfone's Fonebridge handled all that easily. But all good things come to end. Redfone's Fonebridge was not available anymore. And we had to seek replacement. We got to know abot Allo's 2nd Generation PRI card with echo cancellation....

I am looking for input on wether the 4 port T-1 foneBridge is a useful device in a asterisk deployment. Would it be better to loadup a extra asterisk server to trunk the T-1's via IAX or is TDMoE safe in production enviroments. We are only looking at 2 T-1's, one for pstn and the other to a channel bank. Any advice? Bruce Reeves Nortex Networks --...

Hello! I have problems with audio in conference zap sip, I have choppy audio. I believe this problem is cause by de echo canceller from the fonebridge that I use in my system. Can someone explain me how I can disable the echo canceller form the fonebridge? I'm using dual port T1/E1 foneBRIDGE2 Thanks!! -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL: http://lists.digium.com/pipermail/asterisk-users/attachment...

I hope someone can help me out with this issue. It has been dogging me for months and I can't seem to get it to go away. I have a Rhino Ceros box running Asterisk 1.4.21.2 connected via eth0 (nVidia MCP61 Ethernet) to a RedFone FoneBRIDGE2 dual-port with EC. The FB is the latest hardware rev and the latest firmware. I'm running the latest fonulator version and I'm running Zap-1.4.11 sourced from RedFone. Nothing else is on eth0. It is currently connected thru a dedicated switch to the FB and the secondary server although I&...

Hello List Does anybody have any experience with the FoneBridge line of products from RedFone? I think their HA implementation sounds interesting, and like the prospect of having dedicated hardware for our PRI connections. Kind Regards Jon Leren Sch?pzinsky

Has anyone every attempted to set up a mini PC to achieve much the same functionality as the fonebridge box? The sort of thing I'm imagining is a micro itx board & case in a completely solid state configuration (flash disk, maybe a psu fan but only if really required), with a TE210P (or equiv) card(s). The sole purpose of this would be to be a bridge between E1 lines and TDMoE. The advantag...

...o avoid transcoding) in LAN -an asterisk server (1.4) doing normal pbx functions + voicemail in the same LAN -Some sporadic conferencing with no more than 2 sip phones and maybe 2 or 3 calls coming from the E1 for a total of 5 people in a conference. The asterisk server will get an E1(pri) via one fonebridge (TDMoE) I was thinking of an HP DL140 with two 250gig sata disks and one 3.8Xeon CPU with 2gig RAM. Also, does a fonebridge setup suffers from the fact that 1.4 has no PRI/R2 support (as said in a previous post by someone else). -- ------------------------------------------------------------ Er...

...soft phones for users. Some outbound also goes to a SIP provider. Active/Active looks to be too much hassle for an installation this size, so we're looking at adding an extra * in an active/passive configuration with Linux-HA in between them. Does anyone have any experience using The Redfone Fonebridge2 in this configuration? It seems like it would do the trick, but I can only find the one testimonial/tutorial on voip-info.org. Specifically, I'm wondering about the reliability of the device itself (since you can't seem to pair them in any way) as well as what extra work the * box has to...

So here is my setup.

They require that I use their own build of zaptel and I am trying to figure out if the problem is with them or something else. The TDMoE traffic is running over a dedicated interface on the asterisk server. Nothing but TDMoE traffic goes over this interface, it does n...

Has anyone on the list used a Soekris engineering PC as a TDM - Ethernet bridge? For example something like a net4801 with a TE110p in it and then using TDMoE to get it into a bigger server where the call processing proper will occur. Anyone know if it might handle a quadspan card ok? (no transcoding, just pure PRI to TDMoE bridging). Craig

First, Something seems to be wrong with the list. I'm not the only person who has expressed seeing their messages either arrive late, or not at all. With that out of the way.. Is anyone aware of any type of failover device for PRI on asterisk? I've found the ISDNGuard, however it is currently not made in the U.S., nor does it run on U.S. power. Is anyone aware of a device that will

What are the options to hook a T1 card up to a laptop running * ? Are there USB or PCMCIA T1 cards ? Has anyone tried a USB to PCI adapter as such : http://www.mobl.com/expansion/products/cardbus_expansion/1slot/ It looks nice but cost 1k how about the linux drivers ? the goal is to have a portable demo system thanks - Arnaud

...second wouldn't send calls to the agent unless it got calls from the main switch in the event of failure. I'm sure there other solutions. I've come across other products like Ranch Networks (their web site is rather uninformative, although it seems promising) and Redfone's foneBRIDGE (which seems it may help.) I'll be using Sangoma cards on the Asterisk box, if that matters. Does anyone have experience they'd like to share on effective ways to do this? -Norman

Hello Out of curiosity, has someone managed to run Asterisk on a Beagleboard for home-use? www.beagleboard.org As an alternative to a PC, it can be powered from a USB hub, so that would make for a compact, fanless Asterisk server. Thank you.

It is amazing to me at this point that there is not an official Digium list of supported servers (including 1u models!). Clearly the number 1 issue with the Digium PRI cards is the server that they are used in. The new cards even go as far as listing server that DO NOT work on the Digium site! The wiki references are old and do not have any testing parameters. C'mon guys! Certify a

...how phone systems work but the telco never received the proper hang up response from Asterisk. This caused channels to fill up fast. I confirmed this talking with our local company. They showed all 24 lines of our T1 in use yet Asterisk showed only 2 active calls. I talked with the gentlemen from Fonebridge and he was definitely helpful and more then willing to work with us to sort out the problem but sadly we just didn't have the time to wait to figure it out and went back to Digium cards. As soon as we put in the Digium cards the problem went away. You might want to check with them to see if the...

I am preparing to connect an asterisk box with a redfone fonebridge to a T1 service provider. I am doing this by testing first with another asterisk and a Sangoma card playing the role of telco. I formerly had this test configuration operating flawlessly as a PRI connection. But I discovered that I will need to use E&M, thus I've chosen the parameter...

Installation seems to run correctly only i can't get the D Channel up and i have the following error displayed. DYN/ SPAN ethmf <mac_address_fo_fbport> Expected seq no 0 , but received 3456 instead . This error keep scrolling until i disconnect the ethernet cable connected...

RAD appear to have bucketloads of products which bridge between various interfaces (E1, BRI, POTS) and their own TDMoIP protocol. The attractive thing about them for me is their availability in Australia. The voip wiki says not much about it (http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/TDMoIP), and certainly nothing about if there is any way to get Asterisk to talk TDMoIP. Despite the name, TDMoIP
