Re: [asterisk-users] PRI Splitter
Everyone Interested, The FSV-4PFS Order page has options for which pins you would like switched. The default choice is T1/E1/POTS Pins (Pins 1,2,4,5) Other possible choices are: Ethernet (Pins 1,2,3,6) and All 8 Pins Igor - you and I spoke before you ordered your devices. I knew that you intended to switch ethernet, so I of course picked that choice for you. Craig - If you ordered the Ethernet switch and we mistakenly sent you a T1/E1/Pots switch, please let me know via e-mail. We'll get it exchanged out right away. Looking at your original order on our website, I don't see the Ethernet option selected. Either way, if you need a different configuration, we will be happy to get it taken care of for you.

We recently got a fsv-4fps failover switch from failsafevoip and it seems to be pretty solid and affordable for the ability to switch 4 trunks. It switches on power failure or death of asterisk.

While by itself that would be a pretty good design, there would be a vulnerability, because of course it's possible to have Asterisk crash while the server is still happily powered on. Therefore the Rhino failover device incorporates another design element: If you choose, you can enable its watchdog system.

If both servers power fail you have a problem anyway. ;-) This is incorrect. According to Jim Rhodes at Rhino, there is no NEED for 'backup' power from another server via USB: As I described in the last post: Not only does the loss of PC power NOT present a problem, is the main DESIGN element. If the PC/Server powers off, the relays naturally de-energize, which by design, PASSES the service [mechanically, as tne natural result of no power] to the failover port (to the port connected to your spare server or analog devices) Christian Victor [EMAIL PROTECTED] said: Do you have an idea of its price ? Approx. US$ 700 This is incorrect. Again, according to Jim Rhodes, the FULL nobody-ever-actually-pays-this-much LIST price is US $350. In my estimation, the street price will be between US $220 and $299 depending on your reseller's markup. I don't know if Rhino has M.A.P. rules.

I would have to ask the guys at Rhino for confirmation on this point but: My current understanding of the EXTERNAL usb connection is so that in the event that the secondary server NEEDS TO TAKE OVER the service for any reason, it can pre-empt the main server without the main server failing. Essentially the secondary server can 'ask' for it. -Karl ___ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- AstriCon 2008 - September 22 - 25 Phoenix, Arizona Register Now: http://www.astricon.net asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

What you're describing sounds more like the RedFone device which is actively parsing, processing, and routing the digital media stream of a T1/E1, using a digital switching system not a mechanical one. I imagine that in your field of broadcasting, there would be little tolerance for artificats introduced a mechanical switch. http://www.red-fone.com/Products/fonebridge2/ The Rhino is just a passive (normally closed) mechanical switch with an active monitoring system. The advantage is that it can be used to do failover on switch Ethernet, Analog or ISDN. You couldn't get that kind of flexibility otherwise.

Re: [asterisk-users] PRI Splitter
So this card has interesting price position, the main drawback being, IMHO, it's eating a slot, which can be a rare resource in rackable servers. You raise a very important point. This device uses a BRACKET, but not a motherboard SLOT. In other words, it hangs free in one of the chassis slots that do not have a corresponding slot on the motherboard. If you do not have a bracket slot, you could mount it externally, but you'd have to engineer a way to hold it. FYI, As an analog failover device it can fail over as many as 4 analog lines. I think it's a really attractive value proposition. -Karl ___ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- AstriCon 2008 - September 22 - 25 Phoenix, Arizona Register Now: http://www.astricon.net asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
Re: [asterisk-users] PRI Splitter
On Mon, 01 Sep 2008 10:18:17 -0500, Karl Fife I would have to ask the guys at Rhino for confirmation on this point but: My current understanding of the EXTERNAL usb connection is so that in the event that the secondary server NEEDS TO TAKE OVER the service for any reason, it can pre-empt the main server without the main server failing. Essentially the secondary server can 'ask' for it. I'm glad I checked with Rhino on this point. My original understanding was incorrect. Bryce Chidester at Rhino said The external port is to be used *instead* of the internal header in the event there is no internal header, or if you just want to mount the [failover card]externally. I also learned that the name of this device is the Single Port T1/E1/J1, Ethernet and Analog Failover Card sometimes referred to as the SPF (single port failover) card. I suppose it's so named because even though it will failover 4 analog circuits, it will only failover 1 Ethernet or T1/E1/J1 circuit. -Karl ___ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- AstriCon 2008 - September 22 - 25 Phoenix, Arizona Register Now: http://www.astricon.net asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
Re: [asterisk-users] PRI Splitter
2008/9/1 Karl Fife [EMAIL PROTECTED] It is powered over USB from the main (internal USB) and backup (external USB) server. If one of the power fails it will switch to the other server. If both servers power fail you have a problem anyway. ;-) This is incorrect. According to Jim Rhodes at Rhino, there is no NEED for 'backup' power from another server via USB: Did I write you NEED a second power supply? I was just refering to the fact that when both servers power fail you have a problem no matter if the failover switch ist still working or not. Do you have an idea of its price ? Approx. US$ 700 This is incorrect. Again, according to Jim Rhodes, the FULL nobody-ever-actually-pays-this-much LIST price is US $350.

According to http://store.variantdistribution.com/category-s/49.htmVariant - one of Rhinos distributors and the only source I was able to find - quotes the card for US$ 700.

Strange. I've seen this happen before where retailers will list outrageously high prices for soon-to-be-released products. For example the SNOM KlarVoice handset. MSRP is $32, but I've seen it advertised for $200! http://www.8774e4voip.com/SearchResults.asp?Search=klarvoice I can say with confidence that the LIST price is US $350. The street price will be considerably lower. Frankly, if I were Snom or Rhino I'd be pretty cheezed off about this phenomenon. After hearing the 'buzz' about a new product such as this, I'd hate for customers to *decide* against it mistkenly believing this incorrect price. I'd turn my nose at either of these two products for the incorrect prices I've seen advertised. We're pretty stoked to have stumbled onto this product because it's brand new, and we've been looking for something like it for some time. -Karl ___ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- AstriCon 2008 - September 22 - 25 Phoenix, Arizona Register Now: http://www.astricon.net asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
