The ATA has two codecs that work with Asterisk.  The G711 codec works,
but each call tkes 64K of bandwidth + IP overhead.  For most people this
is only useful if the ATA and your Asterisk server is on the same LAN. 
The G729 codec also works with Asterisk, but the ATA only supports ONE
G729 call at a time.  The G729 codec for Asterisk costs $10.
