If you have a spare ISDN card, you may prefer to integrate it over T1/E1/PRI rather than over SIP. The bigger barrier is you not having control of the system. It's made a lot tougher by not having a way to experiment except to be dead-in-the-water. -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

New phones will probably be SIP. Best regards, Kent Varmedal -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

Really? Why not? If it speaks SIP, it should be able to do multiple SIP trunks / channels, and you should be able to set up a simultaneous SIP trunk alongside your production line(s). If you tell us the PBX, somebody here has probably worked with it. If the old PBX speaks true SIP, you could ditch the old PBX, and have the SIP phones register directly with asterisk. -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?
