To supply dial tone to your system, you can use:
A third-party PBX system with a digital (T1,E1, or BRI) interface
■
An NBX system, which connects to your system by means of a T1 line
■
When you establish the links between your NBX system and the PBX or
another NBX system, the signalling bits provide the dial tone.
If your NBX system connects to another NBX system, make sure the
Digital Line Card types are configured as T1. This method is not
supported if the Digital Line Card type is configured as ISDN.
1 Click PSTN Gateway Configuration > Digital Line Cards.
2 If the Digital Line Card type is ISDN, click the MAC address of the Digital
Line Card line.
3 In the Card Type drop-down list, select T1.
4 Click Apply.
