FXO – Enables the Foreign Exchange Office (FXO) mode, supporting a bidirectional
connection to a PBX phone line. This mode uses 4-state signaling (A&B).
FXODN – Enables Foreign Exchange Office Software-Defined Network (FXODN) mode
for operation on software-defined networks. This mode is used by Class 4 switches and
uses 2-state signaling (A=B).
FXODN/WINK – Enables the mode FXODN with WINK which is similar to FXODN, but
in addition provides an indication toward the network interface when the attached
analog equipment is ready to receive signaling information. This consists of detecting an
off-hook signal from the network interface, which initiates a configurable "wink delay"
followed by a configurable off-hook signal back to the network interface.
DPT – The Dial Pulse Terminating (DPT) mode is similar to FXO, except for supporting
in-coming, one-way trunks to a PBX (direct inward dialing) or key system.
