I don't see how that matters. What I'm concerned about are the telephones and wiring on the private side of our premises telephone system. Connecting to the PSTN is a solved problem. But anyway, to answer your question: POTS. Analog copper dialtones. They go into LS/DS (Loop Start/Disconnect Supervision) cards on the Norstar MICS. > If you can't get a proper VoIP card for your PBX ... Not easily. The Norstar MICS, like just about every other premises telephone system ever made, uses proprietary signaling and encoding internally. The Nortel upgrade path is the BCM, which replaces the MICS core with an IP-based system, which also works with the Norstar telephones and expansion modules. -- Ben _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/
