    Connecting the Max™ to a PBX By connecting the Max to a PBX, additional features such as inbound PSTN calling and remote calling can be supported. Basically, an analog PBX would require an FXS or FXO version of the Max. The primary determinant between FXS and FXO is the type of card and available ports present on the PBX.
  • Page 17 For example, a Max connected to a PBX extension can be set to greet the caller with a message such as “Welcome to Net2Phone”, can require a password prior to granting access, or be set to simply provide a standard dial-tone once accessed. As mentioned above, only FXO ports provide IVR access.

  • Page 37 Internet The Internet is the global public computer network, comprised of millions of computers throughout hundreds of countries. Within the Internet, smaller ISPs connect to regional ISPs that tie into major backbones across the world. Internet Telephony Internet Telephony, sometimes referred to as IP Telephony, is the two-way transmission of audio over a packet-switched (TCP/IP) network.
  • Page 38 Key System A key system is a telephone system that, for our purposes, is similar to a PBX in most respects. One of the major differences, however, is that each extension on the system has buttons to directly reach an outside line. Users on a key system do not have to dial a special number, such as “9”, to reach an outside line.
  • Page 39 PSTN (Public Switched Telephone Network) The PSTN is the worldwide telephone network. QoS (Quality of Service) QoS is used to describe the level of service of a data communications system. As related to VoIP or IP Telephony, a QoS level is normally compared to POTS quality.
  • Page 40 T-1 is the North American standard digital interface for high capacity transmission of telephony and data communications. T-1 transmits at 1.544 Mbps and features twenty-four voice channels. TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) Part of the TCP/IP networking protocol, TCP is a transport protocol that verifies correct data delivery between two systems. TCP detects errors, or lost data, and triggers retransmission until the destination receives the correct data.
