Hey guys, My situation/question deals with a VoIP application using Cisco Routers.
Let me start by saying that I have no/none/nadda experience or knowledge when it comes to routers. If I can make this "Tie-Line" application work then I should also be able to sell my customer two new phone systems and two tvs systems. (The customer currently has two 616 systems) Does anyone here have any experience setting up a "Tie-Line" type of circuit (The basic "Station-Trunk, Trunk to Station" connection) using Cisco Routers connected by a T-1. The customer currently has his two locations networked together for data, using Cisco Routers Model 1751, connected via a T-1. He asked me if it was possible to also connect the two phone systems together using his existing T-1 and routers. After some brief looking into, I find that Cisco makes optional cards that I think will work for this application. They are the "CISCO VIC-2FXO and VIC-2FXS" cards. I will be responsible for the telephone system part in all of this, and the customers "computer guy" will take care of configuring and programming the routers. I spoke to Cisco Tech Support. They said that these cards should do the trick. But the tech support reps that I spoke to both sounded puzzled when I started asking questions about things that concerned me- like what "Ring Voltage or Talk Battery does the VIC-FXO card accept. ( I believe that the KXT systems use -24volt talk battery and about 60v-65v slt ring generator) Both myself and his"computer guy" seem to have second thoughts about telling the customer that we can make this happen and that he should purchase the cards. To set up two tie-lines in each direction, he will need two of each card which should cost about 1200$. The customer says he has his own supplier for the hardware but once he buys the cards he can't return them. So my question is - is the above application do-able?? thanks- Joel multipart/alternative text/plain (text body -- kept) text/html _________________________________________________________________ KX-T Mailing list --- http://kxthelp.com/ Subscription changes: http://kxthelp.com/mailman/listinfo/kxt
