Many thanks for the input Jorge, Now it's clear to methat SIP proxy (trunk) is a paid service from providers..right?
You said I can "peer" two elastix boxes or just one elastix box on one office, does it mean I do not have to avail of the SIP trunk/proxy and/or voip provider? I can do this using only our existing internet connection? Would appreciate it if you can point me to any documentation on this that I can use? "The FXO Card, its in order for your elastix box to connect to PSTN / local telco." ---- The working FXO port is where I will connect the cable from PLDT outlet..right? Then the Elastix box NIC is to the switch..right? Pardon me from not being able to picture the actual connections.. new in this setup..hehhe.. Again many thanks..really appreciate it..

The FXO Card, its in order for your elastix box to connect to PSTN / local telco. You may also need a SIP trunk if you need to make international calls cheaper by not using the local telco/PSTN e.g. US or UK phones (depending on the coverage of the voip provider).

We have the following equipment and facilities: -Internet connection (5mbps) -Desktop computer core2 duo, 2GB memory, 500gb HDD -1x TDM / FXO card 4 port with 1 port working (whatever it is, suggested to have) -Built in NIC plus 1x Dlink NIC -2pcs of Polycom SoundPoint IP 331 IP phone Notes: >From online documentations and forums I should have the following: -VoIP gateway service provider -SIP Proxy of some sort -Or other needed service provider. Situation: The intention really is to implement a company-wide VoIP implementation. But initially IPPBX is desired first connecting the Cebu office and the one in HK. Anyone have the idea on how to go about IP PBX using only the above equipment and facilities? Any lead or definite reading material or suggestions will be appreciated.
