Hello Everyone, I am looking into using Asterisk as our company PBX and voicemail system. I am very familiar with Linux, but the VOIP stuff is new for me. We are a non-proffit organization, so keeping things as cheap as possible is very important. I am looking on some advice for best implementing Asterisk. Here is a rundown of our current system: We have 14 phone lines coming into the building. Aprox. 10 of them are for our current Mitel PBX system. We also have two fax lines. Because of the proprietary nature of our Mitel phones, I will need to replace our current phones. I am looking at the Sipura SPA-841 phones as well as a few SPA-2000 ATAs for the few analog phones we have. My concern is for our incoming lines. I am not sure whether to go with a VOIP provider or to stay with our existing lines. A T-1 may also be an option for our phone lines. We could also use the t-1 for our internet. Does anyone know of a PSTN gateway that is fairly inexpensive that would allow us to use our existing phone lines? As I said earlier, the deciding factor is cost. I also want something that is reliable. Ideally, I would like to go with the option that is the least difficult to set up and maintain. I am the only IT person in our organization that knows how to work with Linux.
I am basically looking for some guidance here. Has anyone dealt with a similar situation and how did you resolve it. Any help would be appreciated. -- Jason Fayre Colorado Center for the Blind _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
