I don't find it complicated, I just usually don't remember what FXO and FXS stand for. I guess the O and S are Office and Station but for most of us who haven't yet memorized that, remembering which is which is the problem. For me at least, he need to know comes up so infrequently that every time I have to look it up again. I knew it in 2005 when I first installed Asterisk and and had to figure out if I needed red or green cards, red in my case and then again earlier this year when I was considering upgrading my Asterisk computer. -- Ira -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- Check out the new Asterisk community forum at: https://community.asterisk.org/ New to Asterisk?

Re: [asterisk-users] USB dahdi fxo ?
People make it overly complicated. Things which provide dialtone are plugged into FXO ports. Phone lines PBX analog extensions Things which expect to be provided with dialtone are plugged into FXS ports. Analog Phones Fax Machines FXO ports can handle the 90 volt ring singnal FXS ports often get destroyed by a 90 volt ring signal -- http://help.nyigc.net/ -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- Check out the new Asterisk community forum at: https://community.asterisk.org/ New to Asterisk?

FX stands for foreign exchange, and the letter on a port denotes the type of the thing that attaches to it. So it's FX "S"tation and FX "O"ffice. The easy way is to note tht most VOIP adaptors (for non-PBX use) have 1 or 2 FXS ports, for plugging in analog phones, and a FXO port is less usual. -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- Check out the new Asterisk community forum at: https://community.asterisk.org/ New to Asterisk?

Keep in mind that the 202 provides two FXS ports. You need the OBiLINE also (plugs into USB port on 202) to get an FXO port.The FXS This is spectacular. Thanks for all the info. But the dreaded FXO/FXS issue. It's like trying to remember linear algebra. If I'm plugging the line from analog phone system into the 202, which then routes it to asterisk, I'm plugging the line into an FXS port , correct? The line from the phone company is plugged into the FXO port. And since I'm not connecting the 202 to the phone company , I don't need one. Correct?
