[Asterisk-Users] FXS or VOIP

[Copeland, Bryan]

In one of my configurations I have an office with a digium dual T1 card...
23 Channel PRI coming in on port 1... Coastcom mux on port2 breaking out FXS
channels.. and voip phones... 

Initially the plan was to use voip phones and use FXS channels for fax
machines.. After putting some phones on the FXS channels and some on the
voip.. I would choose FXS as my primary solution.. The reliability and call
quality was better in our solution.. I will be doing another installation
with only FXS channels and ADSI phones...

well it's not *really* scary, it's just not a PnP solution 95% of the time.
You have to know a little telecom to make it sit up and beg. My TDM400P on
my home Asterisk service was the hardest part of the install. The SIP stuff
was cake, but the TDM400 required some fooling around before I was happy
with the performance.

Yes. Thanks. That helped a lot. You certainly make FXS sound scary (black
art).
For a new office setup, it seems like the better choice is voip all the way.
