[Asterisk-Users] FXO gateways

2005-08-08 Thread Chris Mason (Lists)
Has anyone found a suitable but not exorbitant 4-6 port FXO = sip 
gateway? I need something more compact than a channel bank and using 
many Sipura 3000s is a bit cumbersome. Suggestions?

You may want to contact www.broad-tel.com/index_en.php. They offer a
variety of FXO SIP gateways from 2-port to 16-port.

Do you use this? Are you happy with it's performance? My experience a
year ago with other small FXOs was very dissappointing. I tried the
very earliest SPA-3000, TDM-400 and X101p. None were satisfactory so
resorted to call forwarding my two POTS lines to a lines from an ITSP.

Nope, I don't. I use a TDM-400. But I've seen good comments about
Mediatrix's product on this list. Hard to configure but once it's
done, It just Work (tm). Maybe someone who actually use it can
comment on it.

I am using the SPA-3000 with good results, I just want a more 
professional solution.

I'm not the OP, but did eval the 1204 about a year ago. Worked very well in
terms of transmission levels, echo canceller, etc. But, it was not at all
easy to configure and the only support that exists is through resellers (which
as been almost non-existant).

Unless their firmware has changed a lot (in the last year), security was 
non-existant as anyone with even limited knowledge could hack the config (or 
place calls through it). The 1204 does not have a sip 'register' function, and
getting it to work with asterisk required some very unusual methods. However,
once working, it did a very good job.

On going firmware upgrades are not available to anyone without paying a fee,
making the unit one of the most expensive to own.

To bad the audio quality and echo canceller can't be moved to the TDM card. :(

RE: [Asterisk-Users] FXO gateways / Audiocodes MP-108

2005-08-08 Thread Darren Wright
My experience with an MP-108 was similar.  Incredibly complex to setup,
and very little help from MFR, or even ABPTECH, the main US reseller.
We just couldn't get it working properly.

Ended up with a TE110P with an Adit 600 channel bank, which ROCKS.
Unbelieveably easy to setup.  No echo whatsoever.

I am in Canada and telephone company is Telus. I did also try with a
Vonage ATA plugged into the Mediatrix but Caller ID still does not go
through.  The caller's number is nowhere to be found in the SIP
message sent from Mediatrix to Asterisk.

  Subject: [Asterisk-Users] FXO gateways on Asterisk
  Date: Wed, 18 Feb 2004 00:00:00 -0500 
  To: asterisk users [EMAIL PROTECTED]


 I have been struggling with several mediocre SIP FXO gateways on 
 Asterisk for the past
 6 months and have found that each one has at least one major problem 
 with it.  I am looking
 for any success stories using 1 to 4 port SIP FXO gateways on Asterisk.  
 I need for them
 to support RFC2833 DTMF bridging each way and G729 codecs.  Multi-port 
 FXO gateways
 need to have some sort of grouping and/or routing of SIP calls to 
 specific channels.  So far,
 I have evaluated an Audiocodes MP-104 (4-port) and a Multitech MVP-130 
 (1 port).
 If anyone has found something that works in these scenario's, I would 
 love to hear from you.
 I want to deploy many small FXO gateways over a large geographical area 
 and would
 like to find something that actually works.  Thanks for the help!

I'm somewhat in the same boat and have been evaluating the Mediatrix 1204
sip gateway. Although I've not tried these options to see if they actually
work, the following suggests the box supports your stated requirements:
 Select preferred port #1 codec.
 0 = G.711 u-Law (PCMU)
 1 = G.711 a-Law (PCMA)
 2 = G.723.1
 3 = G.729.AB

 DESCRIPTION Attribute to select the type of DTMF transport.
 0 = In band
 1 = Out-of-Band using Signaling Protocol
 2 = Out-of-Band using RTP DTMF payload

So far my reseller has been able to find ways to accomplish everything that
I've bumped against in terms of implementation issues. The only remaining
issue that I'm currently having is when
 C7960 - asterisk - Mediatrix g/w
call is completed, when the C7960 user disconnects it sends the BYE to
asterisk, but asterisk intermitently does not send a BYE to the Mediatrix.
(Think you and I exchanged a couple of emails on this.) Since asterisk
was Dec 4th CVS, I updated code this past weekend and still have the exact
same problem. I need to research that further.

As of this moment in time (might change tomorrow), the 1204 seems to be about
the only 1-to-4 port sip g/w box on the market that is even close to being
reasonable. Rather spendy for what its really doing though.
