Choosing the Right Expansion Cards
In addition to your Fonality phone server, you will need phone service and the proper expansion card(s) for that service. If you choose analog lines (standard phone service like Verizon, SBC, Qwest, etc.), you will need an FXO card; if you use T1/E1/PRI, you will need a T1/E1 port for each T1 line. The matrix below will assist you in choosing the proper expansion card(s) for your PBXtra deployment. For additional assistance, talk to your sales rep.
All expansion cards that Fonality sells have optional onboard Hardware Echo Cancellation (HWEC). HWEC is strongly recommended for best audio quality on all analog phone lines.
