SUPERTRUNK MAYBE ANOTHER NAME FOR ISDN-PRI THAT THE VENDOR USES, YOU'LL HAVE TO ASK THEM UNLESS SOMEONE ELSE HAS HEARD OF THEM. NEXT QUESTION WITH 1 ISDN-PRI YOU CAN HAVE 23 CALLS UP INC AND OUTGOING. BUT UNLESS YOU'R RUNNING A TELEMARKETING COMPANY THAT WILL MUST LIKELY BE ENOUGH FOR 40 DID'S

Supertrunk is a plain vannila T1 - thats the way phone companies call them
PRI is an application on top of a T1 - which needs the PRI enabler keycode in addition to the DTI + Services cartridge

User difference: PRI gives callerID, but 23 channels and NO dialtone (as routing is the only option for making outgoing calls)
T1 gives 24 channels and dialtone is an option
