Re: [asterisk-users] forwarding pots lines

2008-05-23 Thread Dennis P. Clark
Sorry to jump in on this but I am also interested in this topic.

In my scenario I have about 10 POTs lines brought into the front of a
facility and the only infrastructure connecting the back of the facility
is a 3000ft fiber backhaul.  I've been asked to bring the POTs lines to
the back of the facility.  

Are there any ATAs that trunk multiple POTs Lines?  Like a multiplexer
of some sort.  

If anyone has any information can you please provide the manufacturer
and model of the device?

Thank You,
Dennis

If it's because you have the phone lines already installed and need to
just use them at certain times, I do think there are FXO devices but
I'm not sure they will help. You wouldn't need two asterisk servers at
any rate but only one. The phones connect (through a router if need
be) to the asterisk at the phone lines + FXO end.

There are a couple of companies out there that make 24 port fxo and fxs
boxes. If you have some unused  fibers you cout do this very reliably
with two channel banks...  One with fxs ports and the other with fxo
ports and t1 media converters.

 The grand stream solution mentioned in an earlier post does 8 ports,
you could get one 4 port model and one 8 port model of fxs and the same
of fxo and  accomplish your goal rather inexpensively as well.

[asterisk-users] Cannot hear the other side of the phone call

2006-09-20 Thread Dennis P. Clark
I have had Asterisk 1.2.10 up and running for the past two months.  I
have not done anything to the system in the last month.  

I am using broadvoice.com as a sip provider.  Yesterday everything was
working fine and now when I call out or receive calls I cannot hear the
person on the other line, however they can hear me just fine.  When I
call internally to another extension both parties can hear eachother.
This only seems to be happening when I dial out.  

Additionally I setup a soft phone (X-Lite) and connected directly to the
broadvoice.com sip server and I was able to communicate perfectly.  

Any Ideas?

Thanks,
Dennis

RE: [asterisk-users] LOUD MP3 Hold Music

2006-08-22 Thread Dennis P. Clark
If MP3s are too loud then their should be an internal function that
modifies all MP3s in the folder to be at one consistent volume
(normalization).  Anybody know of a way to do this?

Here is my musiconhold.conf just in case I missed something.

I'm certainly not an expert on MOH, but I don't believe there are any
volume control knobs to be tweaked in asterisk itself. You might want to
take a look at the configs/musiconhold.conf.sample file as there were
some parameters that impacted high/med/quiet modes, but I'm thinking
they only applied to the old mpg123 music app. Could easily be wrong.

Best guess... probably have to use something like sox to change the
volume of the mp3 (or whatever) file itself.

I managed to get zaptel to compile reasonably easily on 2.6.17-1.2157_FC5smp. 
However, the yum repo sites do not provide devel packages for 2.6.17-2174 for 
some reason last time I checked, hence couldn't get it to build on that kernel. 
You could probably create the devel package without too much trouble from the 
srpm, but it's a lot easier to stick to 2157.

If anyone else have managed to get FC5 to install the correct devel packages 
for the latest kernel, please let me know!
