<br>
Hi folks,<br>
<br>
A client wants to keep their old Inter-Tel KTS analog phones for budget reasons. Two questions:<br>
<br>
1. How could they use these with FreePBX?<br>
2. Would they be losing any features that they currently have with their analog PBX?<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>
<br>

By the time you outfit the customer with analog gateways you are much better off with IP phones. You don't get all the nice features of FreePBX without dialing codes using analog phones. Also are the analog phones True FXS PSTN phones or are they specfic to their old system?<br>
<br>
How many phones do they need. I have six cisco IP 303 phones that I traded-in from a customer that wanted to step-up to our nicer 4 line Grandstream phones. We would be willing to make a good deal on the six as we do not use cisco. Contact me off list if you are interested in the phones. <br>
<br>
