Thanks Rich, looking at the Sipura site is looke like the SPA-3000 should do what I'm looking for, with its FXO port connected to an extension line on the analogue PBX, and its Ethernet port exposed to the Internet (with suitable security) for the remote worker to point his VOIP phone to. > Lots of other vendors out there doing the same thing.

I understood the "toll bypass" products as being for connecting an analogue *phone* to a VOIP network (e.g. ATA-286), which was the opposite of what I wanted. Anyway, the SPA-3000 looks ideal - thanks!
