Hi Gordon, thank you for your answer. It's not mandatory to use an external box to handle the PRI. I was thinking to use a Patton device instead of a TE120P just because I would like to be able to switch to T38 in the near future or if working with inband faxes will reveal problems. I'm open to

Hi Steve, I was waiting for your answer :-P I started to use your SpanDSP library since some years ago but, unfortunately, my experience was only related to lab or personal use and/or systems with PSTN or BRI cards and low fax volume where it's impossible to have valid statistics. I read the
