I have a CMG card myself but haven't done anything much with it, and using TDM is really the proper way to set up a channel bank
That's the way we do it at LSSM for our internal dial-in pool and BBSes. TDM is so much simpler and free of hassle compared to SIP.
That, and it's significantly more feature rich, when dealing with analog phones. There's a lot of cool stuff you can do with TDM that you just can't do with SIP. From what I understand, VCF Midwest also uses real TDM at their conference and not SIP.
Yep. I was going to stop short of saying "SIP is a steaming pile", but I'll go ahead and say it: "SIP is a steaming pile".
(I'm also a bit biased, I'm the primarily developer of TDM related stuff in Asterisk nowadays.)
Oh, very cool. I did some work for Digium (Solaris drivers for some PCI cards) about twenty years ago. -Dave -- Dave McGuire, AK4HZ New Kensington, PA
