[asterisk-users] Zaptel FXS Cards - Station Distance

[Tim Nelson]

Hello! In the near future, I'll be deploying an asterisk system that will have (in addition to many SIP handsets) four FXS handsets. Is there a known limitation to the length of cabling that can be used between a Digium/Openvox/Sangoma FXS card and the end station? I understand the card will need a molex power connector plugged in to provide extra voltage. With traditional phone systems, I have not seen any distance limitations. I would just like to verify that the FXS ports are able to provide sufficient power for longer runs. Thank you!!!
