[Asterisk-Users] large analog to asterisk

[Michael D Schelin]

If your rooms analog phones are wired with cat 3 cabling you can do 10 
Mb over it.  Convert all the rooms to Ethernet  and use large switches. 
One Asterisk box should do the trick. Remember not every room will be 
using  the phone  system at the same time.  This should work for you.
