[Asterisk-Users] T1 to cross connect remote PBX and asterisk

[Damon Estep]

Thanks!
 
technically you have your asterisk connected to the avaya (not the other way), since your config below indicates that asterisk is doing CPE side signalling, which menas the avaya must be doing network side signalling.
 
nevertheless, the end result is the same!

I have our Avaya connected to Asterisk using NI D channel protocol over a standard ESF/B8ZS span.  It works great.
 
Pretty easy.  On Asterisk's side I just had to tell it:
in zapata.conf:
[channels]
switchtype=national
signalling=pri_cpe
group=1
channel => 1-23

in zaptel.conf:
loadzone = us
defaultzone = us
span=1,0,0,esf,b8zs
bchan=1-23
dchan=24

Looking for someone with a successful experience similar to this;

 

I have a need to cross connect a 3COM NBX PBX PRI interface to asterisk, but over a long distance. We do not need any IP connectivity and the solution requires G.711u audio so there is no benefit to using IP.

 

Has anyone here successfully cross connected any PBX PRI interface expecting NI2 PRI signaling B8ZS/ESF with an asterisk box providing PRI_Network signaling on a T1 interface card using a long haul point to point ESF/B8ZS T1?

 

I do not need the technical details on how to set up asterisk or the remote PBX, just need a sanity check on the idea of using the PTP T1 as a cross connect facility. If they were local to each other I would simply drop in a T1 crossover cable, but they are not :-)

 

Thanks!
