[Asterisk-Users] 5 Channel / Trunk ??

[PBX]

Ok.. Thinking about your comments...

Example - 

Have 1 DID line and the rest loop-start lines.  The DID line would have
all phone numbers needed.  Last 4 digits passed via DTMF.  Extension
created using the last 4 digits passed.  Then do a goto that jumps to
the appropriate company extension playing the auto atendant.

Then outbound voice could just go over any available line....

Get E&M wink DID lines. The line signals a call, you pick up, X number
of digits are passed in DTMF, and you wink the line and then answer the
line with the appropriate extension signaled. You set these DID numbers
up as a nice Goto that jumps to the appropriate companies start
extension in the appropriate context. This way also all 5 lines can be
used by any company, or you can place counters that would let you play a
message saying something and then hangup to free the line up for your
remaining companies.
