Correct. } remember this because a phone is an office device. That's just my trick, but The trick is wrong. A phone is a Station device. } technically, from what I have been told, a phone actually is an FXO. You were told wrong. } FXS connects to FXO and vice versa, just like the DTE/DCE example. Yes. The ports on the routers are named for the type of devices that connect to them. They are really the opposite type of device. } > A PBX, using a trunk line, connects to the FXS port? } } No, that's backwards too. You would use an FXO port in this case. No, this is correct. A PBX using a trunk line is acting as a Station device and therefore would connect to an FXS port. }-- End of excerpt from "Priscilla Oppenheimer" Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7&i=55670&t=54331 -------------------------------------------------- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
