[Asterisk-Users] BAD/GOOD Echo Cancel

[f6hqz-m at hamwlan.net]

Hi the list,

I can confirm you that I have not noticed any echo issue in this
configuration (analog phones on quadFXS modules AND analog lines on quadFXO
modules) at the same place and Asterisk when some echo issues occured with
IP-Phones.

TDM2400E is an excellent choice :-)

Best Regards,
Francois BERGERET,

I've used Voicetronix FXO/FXS ports and noted pretty heavy echo on both
short and long runs to other switches.  We went through some steps to try to
tune the echo out using some settings on the card, and it helped with some
of the higher frequencies, but the problem still remains for many users.  We
decided, based on this and other problems, to pick up a Digium TDM board
with 4 FXS ports and it virtually eliminated all our problems.  The digium
are short run (<20 feet) to our PBX.  

The next step is probably going to be buying a 12 FXS / 8 FXO port TDM24XX
card with hardware echo cancellation.  The FXS will be all short run to our
PBX and the FXO will be relatively long runs to the phone.  So I'm very
curious (and hopeful) that the problems will be much abated.

Just an enquiring mind wanting to know, but how is a hardware solution
different to a software solution? The echo cancellers in the Digium hardware
presumably just use the same sort of algorithms as the software versions, so
it is just that they are dedicated and perform better, that they are closer
to the source of the echo, or some other thing that I've overlooked?

Thanks
