Correct, it is to provide the ringing voltage on the FXS modules. For systems without internal molex connectors available, there is another option. Digium has created an externally powered supply that can be used with these cards. http://www.digium.com/en/products/hardware/analogpwr.php Thanks.

[asterisk-users] TDM400P (TDM22P) and aux power.

Due to circumstances, I end up with a 1u server that has no aux power connectors available. I have to use this server, so am considering abandoning the analog phones and using all SIP. IIRC, the aux power *is* only to power ringers. I don't remember if it is also needed to provide the potential for the line as well, but I cat testify to the fact that you can comfortably run a TDM400P with 4 FXO boards on it and nothing plugged into the PSU header. joe a. ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com-- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

That is correct. You *only* need the power connector plugged in for FXS modules.
