Asterisk can do this already. We do that already. The original poster
requested a solution that does the split outside Asterisk for reliability
reasons.

Actually, from what I have read Asterisk is not totally transparent when
acting as a switch, connecting several pri:s. I remember seeing a bug
report a while ago about asterisk not passing on the dial plan specifier
transparently. For most cases (such as ours) this is no problem.  All our
equipment and our pstn connection use the same dialplan.
