[nflug] Asterisk and FXS cards?

[Mark Musone]

Actually, I screwed up. I meant I have a FXO card for connecting to the
PSTN. The echo is also mainly in the FXO also..

I don't think theres nearly as much of an issue with FXS..but I still have
serious reservations about it. It just doesn't make sense. I'd rather go
with an ATA adapter over

a FXS card. I'll talk to you later about it.

I wanted to use the analog phones I already have- That's why I specifically
asked about fxs cards, but from what I'm getting back and looking up,
there's some real sound quality issues with the fxs cards.  I may just go
with softphones.

VOIP can use analog or sip handsets (real phones). If
you want to keep your analog phones rather than buy
sip phones then you'll need an FXS card or new on the
market is a 4 or 8 port usb channel bank that allow
you to connect your analog handsets. Same price range.

Or you can go buy sip phones. Prices vary greatly.
Polycom IP501's offer the best bang for the buck. It
has 3 line appearances ( 3 full extensions) . The new 
sipura 942 also looks good. It has 2 line appearances.
Both are in the sub $200. the grandstream GX2000 is in

the $100 ranges. Go to voipsupply.com to get an idea.
How many phones will be hooked up? Do you want to 
continue to use your analog phones? Once you answer
these questions the answer will become more clear.
