Digium TDM410P Analog Interface Card Overview

KerryG — Mon, 01 Mar 2010 19:18:45 +0000

The Digium® TDM410 is a half-length PCI 2.2-compliant modular gateway card for connecting analog telephone stations and analog POTS lines through a PC. It supports a combination of up to four station or trunk modules for a total of 4 lines.

Using an industry-standard bursting, bus-mastering interface chip that is found within millions of PC systems worldwide, and Digium VoiceBus™ technology, the TDM410 eliminates the requirement for external gateways, with industry-leading performance and price. The trunk and station modules are interchangeable, allowing the creation of any combination of interfaces. The optional hardware echo cancellation module provides 1024 taps (128 milliseconds) of echo cancellation for superior voice quality on both trunk and station interfaces. Scaling of this solution is accomplished by adding additional TDM410 or other Digium analog interface cards.

Digium Analog cards, with there interchangeable single and quad FXS and FXO modules can eliminate the requirement for seperate channel banks or access gateways. Digiums commercial, toll-free quality High Performance Echo Cancellation (HPEC) software is available to our analog customers at no additional cost. The optional VPMADT032 hardware echo cancellation module provides the same toll-quality HPEC but without the perfoamce inpact of a software based solution. Scaling of an analog card solution is accomplished by adding additional cards and FXO / FXS modules.

4 Ports for connecting analog telephones or POTS lines
Half-length Analog Card
Up to 4 FXS or FXO Modules

Configuring Cisco 7940/7960 Phones with 3CX

KerryG — Mon, 01 Mar 2010 17:29:23 +0000

Even though many people really like the Cisco 7940/7960 phones and want to use them with third-party IP PBX platforms such as 3CX, trixbox CE, and trixbox Pro, Cisco does not want you to do this and it is an unsupported configuration. Secondly, the phones are extremely picky about their configuration files and only a small number of firmware versions will even work correctly. Add to that the fact that you have to have a Cisco support contract to even get the firmware files and these phones can quickly go from a big savings if you bought them used on eBay, to a huge expense in just trying to make them work. All that aside, let’s roll up our sleeves and get these phones working with 3CX.(...)

Configuring Cisco 7960 Phones with trixbox CE / Pro

KerryG — Fri, 26 Feb 2010 19:53:03 +0000

While Cisco does not support using the 79xx series of phones on third-party IP PBX platforms such as Asterisk/trixbox, it is possible to get them to work with a little effort. If you do not have the SIP firmware for the phones, this will be your biggest hurdle as the only way to get it is to have a support contract with Cisco, or to have someone that does have a support contract get the firmware for you, then you may have to jump through a bunch of firmware hurdles to get the right version installed. It can really be an awful lot of work depending on the condition of the phone when you get it. (...)
