This is not that difficult. The first question you need to answer is
whether you want to use a dedicated circuit (E1/T1/PRI) or multiple
copper lines. This mostly depends on the call volume that you will be
handling. Depending on your choice, you can install either a Sangoma or
a Digium card to handle a dedicated circuit or you can use a Digium
TDM400B card or a PSTN gateway to connect to your POTS phone lines.
