[Asterisk-Users] asterisk functions without voIP

[Alistair Cunningham]

Pablo,

Brazil uses normal PRI (primary rate ISDN) over E1, so the Digium TE 
cards will definitely work. As always with PRI, you will need to get the 
correct settings for framing, line coding, and so on.

I would imagine that BRI (basic rate ISDN) would also be normal in 
Brazil, but have not tested myself.

Both of these can handle callerid if your provider gives you the 
information.
