bcm 400 expasion unit

[fireeater]

have a situation that could be rectified if i can place a expansion unit at another building
question is has anybody done this
scenario:
main building bcm 400 3.7
second building expansion unit

fiber between buildings

can the cable be extended with media converters
rj45 to fiber then back to rj45
i know the book says 16 feet max or signaling disrupts
but if use fiber and shorter cables to be equiv timing to 16 feet, would it work
thanks

Can't be done the wire between the Main and exp. has to be the special cable that is 5m 16ft.

Thats what IP phones are for.

 

[fireeater]

it's just the fact that they have co's in the second building and require ata's as well

just thinking of new ways to do this other that 2 systems
or the old mod extenders

fireeater, install a couple Norstar IP gateways or a couple of the super-cheap SIP gateways. One end is a FXO and the other FXS.
