My test Asterisk system has a single analog port PCI modem in it. The modem is the Digium Wildcard X100P that is recommended for Asterisk ($12 ebay).
https://www.digium.com/index.php?menu=wildcard_x100p I've been using the card to make and answer calls through the PBX for a few weeks.
Is there a risk using this on the analog ports of the PBX? We've been using normal data and fax modems through the PBX for years, hopefully this is no different.
If there is no risk with the modem and you want to play with VoIP within a short period of time I recommend playing with the Asterisk at Home CD and XLite:
https://asteriskathome.sourceforge.net https://www.xten.com/index.php?menu=products&smenu=download I was making VoIP calls through my PBX within a few hours.
I did some googling for "tie lining asterisk pbx" but didn't find anything. If anyone sees more info about this I'd like to read more about the possibility.
For now though if I bought two more Digium cards as additional PBX to VoIP paths(exts 7843,7844, and 7845) I would want to:
1) create an ACD group and put 7843,7844, and 7845 in it.
2) using cmd 1310 set 7843,7844, and 7845 to 0.
so now when calls are forwarded to the lead extension of the Automatic Call Distribution (ACD) group it would go to the first avail extension and send the DMTF tone of where it came from when the extension picks up.
what are the
410 de 44,48 and 49
cmd 5000
and
08>443>1
used for?
Thank you for all of your help.
