Are you using local h323 or sip 'pots' dialpeers to route directly between your FXS and T1 port? Or is call manager in between the call due to MGCP or VOIP dialpeers involved in the dialplan ?
I doubt your issue is line voltage, since you can see the call being placed. My guess is the DSP is processing the call and causing issues. I've seem alarm boxes use nonstandard DTMF transmission that isn't properly recognized by the DSP. The 2800 supports DSP bypass by default when you route directly between ports using POTS dialpeers. You do need to have properly configured network clock configuration. Can you send a copy of your config along with the output of 'show controller t1' and 'show network-clock' Justin On Feb 28, 2015 10:33 PM, "chris" <tknch...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hey Ryan, > > We have a channelized T1 with channels split between voice/data so the > voice path is TDM.
