<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt">What is your target PBX is it Asterisk?<br />
If so your best method is to take calls in direct via SIP trunks, but there are PRI and FXO options available as well. You can not use an FXS gatway to plug to the Telco Service lines. <br />
<br />
SIP Trunk -> Asterisk or Like VOIP compliant PBX..<br />
<br />
If your PBX is not SIP complaint here is a method you can use to get SIP into that.<br />
<br />
SIP Trunk -> SIP to PRI Grateway - PBX with PRI input.<br />
<br />
If your PBX does not have the PRI option and only analog channel inputs FXO<br />
<br />
SIP Trunk -> SIP to FXS Gatway - PBX with FXO inputs<br />

<br />
A telco could either give you a analog line like the old phone line which you have at home with 1 number and 1 line or a T1 which comes from the telcos office to yours and plugs directly into a digital gateway with 23 lines and lots of numbers. and no need at all for analog gateways on the way <br />
If you are going to use a T1 you should return the MP124 you have no need for that<br />

I realized there was an error in my last post. I meant analog gateway<br />
plugged into and FXO port.<br />
DIDs must start somwhere. And I am under the impression that the<br />
telcos are the one that have<br />
control over that? Therefore, we would first need an analog gateway<br />
plugged into an FXO, before<br />
being able to go through the T1s and media servers? Your insight is<br />
greatly appreciated.<br />
