The fxo modules are designed to interface to a pstn line (where ringing comes from the central switching office). The fxs modules are designed to have standard telephone sets plugged into them, and the module provides ringing voltage to the telephone. On the digium web site, a tdm04b is the tdm card with four fxo modules installed. The tdm40b is the same tdm card with four fxs modules installed. The tdm22b has two fxo and two fxs modules. If you incorrectly connect a fxs module to a pstn line, you will likely blow the module making it useless. _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
