Are there any IP to Analog converters available?

[fadi2008]

We have a Nortel succession 1K system. All remote sites talk to the Call server using IP phones only. No remote unit is available.
We need to install a fax machine on one of our remote sites which is connected with T1 line. Are there any IP to analog converters available?

Thanks

Have a look at the list of Nortel Compatible Products at

http://www.nortel.com/prd/dpp/product/index.html.

Pay careful attention to the release level noted of the CS 1000 system as well as the Compatible product. Using anything other than the noted combination may or may not work.

For casual use, you could also use the Algo Analog Terminal Adapter with either the IP Softphone 2050 or via the USB port on an IP Phone 1120E/1140E.

Maybe not the solution you are looking for, but a work around would be installing a POTS line for the fax machine. If it is used internally a lot you can fwd an internal extension to it.

Hi gwebster,
Thanks for the informations.
The USB Analog Terminal Adapter (ATA) is designed specifically for the Nortel IP Softphone 2050.
Do you know another Nortel Compatible Products which is designed for the IP Phone 1120E/1140E because we dont want to use a PC but a IP set not a softphone.

Mediatrix Devices which have 2 4 8 and 16 ports are available from

http://www.keison.co.uk/mediatrix/mediatrix.htm,

also I have successfully used CISCO ATA devices on a CS1K running Rls 5. Be careful though when it comes to multiple Protocol conversions i.e. H323 -> SIP -> Analogue.

I currently use AudioCodes SIP Analog Terminal Adapters at my main site, and a Quintum Tenor SIP Analot Terminal Adapater in one of my remote sites.

I find the AudioCodes to be a bit more stable, and easier to manage/configure.

Both come with port configurations as small as 2 ports, and as large as 24 ports.
