FXS cards generate ring (you connect a "station" to it and it rings).

 

FXO cards sink ring (they take ring from the office).

 

If the Octel needs ring (which it most likely does), you would need an
FXS card to generate ring for it to answer.  An FXO would take ring from
the vmail server, which, in context, doesn't make a lot of sense (vmail
doesn't call the PBX, the PBX calls vmail).

Hey All, 

 

I'll be configuring an asterisk box to be the voicemail server to an old
Merlin system which had an octel 100 voicemail server that is now dying.


My question is simple: do I need to stick an FXO card in the asterisk
box? My logic is that if the Merlin Magix system is actually generating
electrical current, then I would need to have an fxo card.  Is this
correct?
