Heya, I'm going to work on a voip project and we're going to setup an asterisk-server. We want to test a little bit with a connection to a pstn-line and a connection to a bri-line. I looked around a bit to see what we needed and I want to ask if I understand the naming correctly:
FXS = pstn-signals for calling someone (towards central pbx/server) and knowing that someone is calling you FXO = ...? ATA = connecting potstelephone to lan/computer/... other protocol What I don't understand is that ATA-devices which only have an FXS-port are also able to recieve calls or not? So, what is the difference with an FXO-interface? So, since for now we'll only need to be able to talk to one pots line (and one bri-line), we'll need one FXS-interface (to recieve siand I've had a look at the digium hardware-store since I wanted to be sur eit will work with asterisk. For pstn, I suppose a "TDM400P" with one FXS and one FXO module(?). I also saw the "Asterisk Developpers kit PCI" which fullfils these requirements, which states that it is only for Asterisk-developpers. But, in the description at the top it states taht it is for IT developpers/students who want to begin working with the Asterisk platform. I didn't see a bri-adapter on the digium-site, only pri it seems. Any recommendation on that or is there a bri-adapter from digium. I'm also open to other vendors. I saw that there are others which ar ecompatible with asterisk, but I don't have a lot of time and want to be sure that it works with asterisk. I have had a look at the mISDN-hardwarepage. I suppose I can choose any bri-card that is supported by them? Is mISDN supported by asterisk? I saw that on the page of the "Asterisk Developpers kit PCI" it states that one needs linux 2.4. I have asterisk 1.0.6 installed on this computer and it seems to have drivers for 2.6. So, the question: does the hardware works with linux 2.6.x-kernels? thanks, Michel Brabants
