I'd go with a TE405P (or TE410P depending in pci flavour). They can cross
connect internally and the stream does not have to go through the pci bus. 
Also, this way the interrupt rate is havled compared to using two single 
E1 cards.

Telappliant have them in stock, I think. As to channel banks, Ebay seem to 
be the cheapest but there are mostly T1 banks on sale. Used E1 banks are 
rarer and more expensive.

I don't know of any E1 channel banks but a T1 channel bank will work *just 
fine* for your application (with the exception that it's only 24 channels) -- 
You can use a T100P and T1 channel bank in the UK; I believe the ringing 
voltage and current loops are all identical anyway.  The ringer cadence may 
be north-americanized though.

T100P is US$500 new from Digium, T1 channel banks are about USD$250-$400 used 
depending on how many channels and so on.

US and European phone systems use a different impedance on the lines. I am 
not familiar with the channel banks to know which can be programmed for 
the correct impedance for UK.

 T100P is US$500 new from Digium, T1 channel banks are about USD$250-$400 used 
 depending on how many channels and so on.

Also, UK uses 230V, not 110V. There may be a problem importing a channel 
bank if it does not have a universal power supply.

Do not buy an adtran - no auto impedance match on FXO ports (echo, echo,
echo) and no call disconnect supervision on FXO ports.

Get the ADIT 600 (CAC) (also called a Cactus Lite), they have all those
features and have a 48 port capability, plus callerid works wonderful.

If you still want an adtran, I have 3 I can sell you for cheap :)

Do not buy an adtran - no auto impedance match on FXO ports (echo, echo,

and you might also get AM radio interfernce on the FXO as well
but you can get some inexpensive tellab inline echo cans
that make the 750 work very well with 0 echo
usually much less expensive than the CAC gear even on flea bay
and no call disconnect supervision on FXO ports.
This is not TRUE, they do detect reverse polarity on hangup

[Asterisk-Users] Channel banks, voicemail, and immediate=no

2004-07-19 Thread Chris A. Icide
When using a channel bank for analog handsets, you have a couple options in 
the way you handle transactions involving the analog handsets and origination.

With immediate set to no, it appears to me that soon as a digit is pressed 
after going off-hook, the single digit is taken and processed against the 
context that the channel is associated with from the configuration in 
zapata.conf.

With immediate set to yes, the extension s in the channel's context is 
processed.

As far as I know, the method of handling channel bank based analog handsets 
is to use immediate=yes and then have extension s put the phone directly 
into a DISA command with no-password and a context for processing the 
entered calls.

I have also tried in the past setting immediate=no, parsing off the first 
digit and sending the call into separate contexts (see example below)

example with immediate=yes
exten = s,1,DISA,no-password|internal
example with immediate=no
exten = 9,1,DISA,no-password|pstn-gateway
In the first case, the problem I have is this:  If I place the handset 
directly into DISA, how can I get stuttertone MWI indication?

If I use the second method, in many cases, there is NO dialtone provided to 
the phone until after a dtmf entry is recieved.  This I suspect is a 
channel bank issue because it seems to work on some banks, and not on others.

Given the use of channel banks as a method to allow large number of analog 
phones to access an asterisk system, is there any way (or perhaps any 
interest in developing a method) to actually treat analog handsets on a 
channel bank like any other UA?  In other words, why not have a method 
besides the two above so that I can stick the phones into a context (which 
understands it's for handling analog phones on a channel bank) that 
actually provides dial tone, and accepts dtmf until a match to the context 
extensions is found?  In other words, with immediate=no, I'd like to see 
asterisk not jump on the first dtmf and try to match (going to i, if no 
match exists), but actually wait for as many dtmf's as required to match an 
extension in the context (e.g. exten = _1NXXNXX waits for 10 digits if 
dtmf 1 is the first digit).

On a different track, am I doing something wrong above?  For people who 
have configured channel banks for use with asterisk, have you found a 
'perfect' configuration that you prefer to use?

I'm using a channel bank with a T1 card on the Asterisk server and have
defined the FXS channels (user phones) to the context of [internal] and
don't have any problems using the dial plans with the full digits.  I
haven't had any of them try to go to the i extension after the first digit.
Not sure what configuration you're using that is causing this problem.  I
have immediate=no as well.

[Asterisk-Users] Channel Banks

2004-01-19 Thread Kostur, Andre
Title: Channel Banks





OK, I'm having some trouble finding which equipment I need 


What I'd like to do is take about a dozen incoming analog lines and bring them into an * server. Of course one is going to have a hard time fitting a dozen X100P cards in a case, so an alternative would be a channel bank and a T100P in the * server. Now here's where my confusion comes in. I _think_ I need a channel bank that has a T1 interface on one side (to go to the * server), and FXO interfaces on the other (to accept the incoming analog lines from the telco)? And are there suggestions out there as to which channel banks one should select for this sort of deployment?

Well, you have several options. A T100P and a 
device such as a Adtran Altlas or simpler Channel bank. But since at this time 
as you point out Digium only has 1 FXOport per PCI slot(FYI I hear they 
are working on a 4 port per PCI slot). The other options are MediaTrix, 
VegaStream, or other devices like them. They are essentially FXO to SIP over 
Ethernet devices and although I really like the Digium T100P(It is 
solid)for whatyou are trying toaccomplish I think card and 
channel bank may not be the most elegant solution.

If you are getting a dozen pots line from the telco, they may just drop
you a T1(E1) (or PRI) that only has half the channels provisioned. Talk
to your sales rep. It makes it very easy to turn up additional channels,
you get digital quality, decent signaling, and the telco saves pairs.

 Hi,

 Recently we started experiencing problems with our zhone
 z-plex 10-24S channel bank. Currently we are looking to get
 a replacement. Just wondering if anyone can comment
 on their personal experience or maybe give some pointers.
 We are looking for a reliable product to support a call center
 and live operators.

 Cheers.

[Asterisk-Users] Channel banks

2003-10-17 Thread Thomas Wienecke
Hi everybody,

I am new to telephone equipment and *, and i am wondering how channel banks 
are named in germany. (And where they could be bought.) It seems to me, after 
some research, that these things are quite common goods and i cant imagine 
that they are not availlable in Western Europe. So i guess it is a matter of 
naming conventions.

Has someone an idea?

Thank you in advance,

Thomas Wienecke

It could be a channel mulltiplexor. With the amount of ISDN you have in
Europe, I wonder if there is many uses for channelized E1 without it
being a PRI/PRA. As I understand it, it is a fairly uncommon item, or at
least there isn't enough around to drive the cost down. You can however
get a TA750 or ADIT600 for the american market(eBay) and then purchase
either a E1 board for them to swap out the T1 card, or you can purchase
the TE410P and use it in the T1 format while still running the E1 to
your telco.

You may know already but the vast majority of channel banks are T1 only 
and typically only available in the US.. At least this is what I found 
when I was looking at using one.. Of course the dual mode card from 
Digium removes alot of the problem now in that you can have one or two 
ports of T1 to a CB and another port E1 to the PSTN..

Hi All

Can you's give me your thoughts on the best channel banks to use?

I have use Adtran 750 and Adtran 600's.  They are very easy to work with and seem to 
work just out of the box!  There not cheap but work every time!

Which are the easist to setup and which are the most reliable.

favourite is J-tech of which I can find the damn link to their page for now ...

One I really like (and BTW it is not a matter of being compatible with any 
computer system as what we are now dealing with pure telephone technology)
is Adtran 850 and similar.

It has 6 moduls for 4 port cards that can be either station (FXS) or office 
(FXO). Station cards are used on your side and office on the phone 
company's.

It's hard to find better hardware than Adtran. Here's a link:

If I understand this correctly.. Your channel bank will convert analog FXO
 FXS to a T1 then you slap a Wildcard T100P in your linux box then your
all set.  It shouldn't matter if the channel bank is compatible with linux
or not because you are going to terminate with a T1 cross over to your
linux box.

[Asterisk-Users] Channel Banks

2003-07-27 Thread Adam Goryachev
What channel banks are best supported by asterisk, and available new at
preferably decent prices??

It would seem that for small offices with less than 15 users, a single port
T1 card with a channel bank, with say 15 FXS and 9 FXO (or similar config)
would be ideal. So I would like to find channel banks that suit that sort of
environment

Also, I suppose you would also want channel banks for larger offices,
generally as 100% FXS ports and using digital trunks for FXO (ie, pri).

Regards,
Adam

 If so how was it ?

I seem to remember someone recently offering up free british toll free
access via an ata186 and a box either the same one mentioned here or
similar on the FWD list. If you browse the archives there you should see
what people thought of the experience, and/or contact the person to see
what type of longer term satisfaction they had.
