I have asterisk 1.8.18 which connects to ISDN PRI. All phones are sip,
Aastra 6757i. Everything works as expected.
We also have a FAX machine. We need to be able to use that FAX machine
to send or receive faxes. We are planning to have a dedicated did for
faxes. Before, FAX machine was connected directly to pots line.
Any digestions how to accomplish it?

a) Without Asterisk: Get a ISDN-ATA (POTS-ISDN converter), e.g. DeTeWe TA 33clip, hook the fax machine to it and the ATA (configured to receive calls for the fax DID) to the ISDN line. At least thats how it would work with ISDN BRI, not sure about PRI. If you don't have enough ISDN ports on the NT you could get an ISDN switch.

b) With Asterisk: Get a SIP-POTS adapter, configure it with the fax DID and hook your fax machine to it. There are many adapters available: http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Analog+Telephone+Adapters
(FritzBox seems to be popular)
