RE: [WISPA] OT: Asterisk
Scottie, if you want to include outside POTS lines to access with the server, you need an FXO card. Single FXO cards made from modem components work well and are, as mentioned by Adam, about $8 to $15 depending on source and shipping. There are 4 FXO digiums but they cost hundreds. If you are going to access the external phone universe by means of an Internet-connected service, you don't need an FXO card since no analog outside lines will be needed. For phones, you can get ATAs such as those from LinkSys or Grandstream for about $40 per line and plug in a regular phone as an extension on the Asterisk or get an IP phone for anywhere from that price up to hundreds for a slick Polycom or Cisco. We've got all that, in fact. It's been just terrific. . . . j o n a t h a n -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Scottie Arnett Sent: Wednesday, November 21, 2007 3:17 PM To: 'WISPA General List' Subject: RE: [WISPA] OT: Asterisk Thanks Adam.

The Buy it now eBay 1-FXO PCI card prices are around $20 and I've gotten auctions for just over $10 per card so I accepted your $8 as the price of winning a fortuitous auction. Reputable stores have it typically for a bit more, around $29. It's all in the noise. . . . j o n a t h a n -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Adam Kennedy Sent: Wednesday, November 21, 2007 3:51 PM To: WISPA General List Subject: Re: [WISPA] OT: Asterisk I'm sorry, I mixed up the terminology while typing.

Will something work with them, or do I have to have FXO lines? At our POP, I have trunk side T1's that are being used for dial-up...but I am not wanting to hook to those yet. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Adam Kennedy Sent: Wednesday, November 21, 2007 3:06 PM To: WISPA General List Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [WISPA] OT: Asterisk There are several cards available on ebay for roughly $8 each.

Can anyone tell me if there is a card that I can hook a couple of POTS lines into just to try it out? Or will I have to get a digital card?
