[asterisk-users] ISDN30 testing questions ...

[tim robinson]

Hi Gordon

'Fraid I don't have a line you can 'play with' so to speak! However, 
firstly, I have installed several E1 based Asterisk systems both in UK 
and elsewhere, and apart from a few telco issues in a Latin American 
country, it just works.

You can do as you suggest, i.e. have two Asterisk boxes back to back, 
and we have done this on many occasions for load-testing our systems. To 
do so you will need to make an E1 crossover with pins 1/2 going to pins 
4/5 at the other end.

Good luck....
