No, an analogue telephone is an FXS device (an Office is what the telco has). The ports are named for the type of device that plugs into them. } Similarly, a PBX, or a CO switch, for that matter, is an FXS device that } provides signaling, and therefore plugs into an FXO port. No, CO = Central Office, i.e. it is most definitely an Office device. Stations do not provide signalling. A PBX sits between a CO and Station devices and therefore has both types of ports on it. Where you plug it in depends on what you are trying to do with it. } Any comments? Reasonable way to think of things? Nope. The ports are named for the type of devices that plug into them, similar to ethernet, serial, GBIC, etc. }-- End of excerpt from "Chuck's Long Road" Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7&i=55679&t=54331 -------------------------------------------------- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
