No. FXO is what you need to connect to a phone line. FXS is to connect to and ring an analogue telephone. (S = Signalling; i.e. it can generate the line current, dialling tone and ringing voltage). A card with FXS modules on it requires an extra connection to the host computer's power supply, as it can draw more power than the edge connector contacts are good for. -- AJS -- _____________________________________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?
