Conceptually, one could purchase a Cisco(or Cisco like device) that has a DVM module(digital voice module) and route the TDM traffic from the DVM out the Ethernet port(VoIP). In a previous life some could and did call this device a channel bank. Although I disagree. Wade is right on the money. A traditional channel bank (T1, M13) will mux many to one from either digital/analog or digital/ditital or digital/optical.
