similar to: 160 analogue phones..

Hi! Is there anyone that are using a E1-channelbank and have any tips about some type? Im looking at the TE410P and use one port for a PRI (Euro-ISDN, I think we're using some slightly modified version here in Sweden, but I'll check that tomorrow) and connect one port to a channelbank for 30 analogue telephones. It would also be great to get callerid on the analogue phones, so it would

Ok, the Zhone sucks and the Adtran 750/850 seems to be a little too expensive. Can anyone recommend a decent channelbank that won't break the bank? TIA, -- Troy Settle Pulaski Networks http://www.psknet.com 540.994.4254 ~ 866.477.5638 Pulaski Chamber 2002 Small Business Of The Year

hello, I am planning a fairly large hotel VoIP system, using analog phones. It will consist of about 100 analog phones, that must have access to a VoIP server. I am considering an option to use a couple of asterisk boxes, bundled with a total of four TDM2460E cards, and one TDM2451E card. Has anyone on this list done something similar? It would be great to hear some comments regarding a smilar

hi, we are currently planning are large site which will migrate from an old siemens hicom pbx to asterisk. it will be a slow migration, the asterisk server will be inserted between the telco E1 and the hicom. new phones will be sip ones. the customer has several fax machines and analog phones (some of them have to be explosion-proof). around 50 analog ports in total are needed. as we are in

Ok for those of you all up in a tizzy over my subject line, please don't take it literally because I'm certainly not saying that asterisk is the problem here. I just got a little nightmare problem that I need a bit of help figuring out. I installed an asterisk system a few months ago for a client, it has run almost flawlessly with the exception of a few small glitches. However, I got a

Hello All, I'm looking to get some feedback on which solution of providing FXS is going to have the best results with faxing. I'm only looking to see what method is going to provide the best digitization into Asterisk, not for transmission from Asterisk to else where. Any recommendations of specific channel banks are welcome. I will need to provide approximatly 216 FXS Ports and need

I have 2 * boxes. 1 has 2 PRI's from the Telco, and a PRI to the 2nd * The other has ZAP channels to Channelbanks for endusers. If someone on the second box calls a Toll Free number (it probably doesn't matter that it is toll free) that is auto answered by an auto attendant (QVC, a Bank, the Airlines, Credit Card Companies....) then the call gets dropped with in a couple of seconds of

Hi, I'm looking for a few pointers on using ATA to connect Asterisk to the PSTN. Basically, I'm running a Hosted PBX service, and in urban centers I can usually get SIP or PRIs. Since I sell my customers SIP hardphones, the data flow is like this: Customer's SIP Hardphone ---- My own Asterisk ----- Outside lines But when it comes to smaller villages (I deal with people in tiny

What kind of channelbank/FXS port are you connecting to? I've seen problems connecting to some of the older versions of the Adtran Total Access 750's. I wouldn't doubt there would be problems on other channelbanks with older firmwares. Of course, no firmware on CAC AB1's I have the AAstra 480, Adtran 750 Channelbank (updated firmware), T100P card, and it worked fine on the

We are a voip terminating company, we're using Channelbank with FXS modules, Rhino, CAC, etc.. What we're wondering is, is how to would you echo cancel a channelbank. Of course we're realizing that cancel'ing on the T1 (on Ast) does no good (we think?) because the analog conversion is at the channelbank. Suggestions? Lowering the gain helps but we're looking for a real solution

hi all, i need an asterisk board that can support up to 30 FXS ports. i found the following on digium: TDM400P. It only has 4 port, does it mean that i have to buy 8 of those to have my 30 FXS line? Or is there any channel bank solution that digium or other providers can provide us with in order to do that. Experienced asterisk user, how do you manage to make PBXs for 30 to 100 regular phones?

Hello, Avaya has a nice feature that allows you to a) ring both a cellphone and a desktop phone at the same time b) transfer calls (and access other PBX features) from the cellphone that recieved the call, as long as the call is bridged through the PBX c) while talking on the cellphone, pick up the handset on your desktop phone and the call is automatically moved there, hanging up the cellphone

Hi All. I'm working on an * configuration. We require 8 inbound POTS lines, and CT1 or PRI seems like it will be quite expensive at that level. I've read that a T1 Channelbank plus the T100P would be a (the?) way to go for this situation. What is the recommended channelbank for use in this scenario? From searching the archives I see a lot of suggestions to get "a

Hello, The company I work for recently purchased 2 Rhino CB24s and a Rhino PCI-E R4T1. The channel banks are plugged into the R4T1, as well as 2 PRIs from our telco. The CB24s are for all internal analog phones. Most of the phones are setup in "batphone mode", which is "immediate=on" in the DAHDI config. They are set up this way because we are an outgoing call

Hi, I've read through the Asterisk handbook and I'd just like clarification from someone that's implemented the above before. Lets imagine I want to use the CallingCard application and don't want to tell a client to buy a channelbank (the analog extensions are too many to connect to FXS cards), I figure I could set them up as below: Original Existing Setup

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

Trying to find my feet here. If I wanted to connect Asterisk to a PRI and throw in a T1 Adtran channel bank into the mix for fax machines would the following work? Connect PRI line from telco to Port 1 on the Digium Wildcard TE205P. Connect Adtran TA-624-T1 to Post 2 on the Digium Wildcard TE205P also, would I need a crossover to the channelbank or is it a patch lead like the connection to the

Hi all, We have been fighting with telco for a entire week. Today they came here with a LITE3000 to analyze what is going on. When I configure zaptel with no external clock, E1 gets aligned/synchronized with bit rate in 2048000 bps, both me and telco. span=4,0,0,ccs,hdb3,crc4 But when I configure span4 to get clock source from telco they become unsynchronized. TElco bit rate stays in

Anybody have suggestions on having a 56K dialpool and VOIP connections with an Asterisk box over the same set of PRIs? We've done the PM3 with PRIs for just dialup, but are looking for a way to integrate our Asterisk box and move our voice calls onto the same PRIs.

All, I have done research on VoIP for some time now. I'm a Cisco certified Network Engineer however Telecom is not my strongest suit. I've been a part of this mailing list for sometime but my delusions of grandeur in migrating our 25 year old phone system to a new platform have been on the back burner, until now. I have found my company is moving to a new location(building) and this
