Xorcom Astribank XR0010 Summary
Xorcom Astribank XR0010
16 FXS and 16 FXO Asterisk Gateway
Astribank is a versatile and powerful channel bank that was specifically designed for the Asterisk IP-PBX. Astribank
supports all the common telephony lines and trunks: FXS, FXO, BRI, PRI and R2. The Astribank driver is a part of
the standard Asterisk distribution. With Xorcom Rapid Live CD™, a fully operational Asterisk server with preconfigured
FXS, FXO, BRI, PRI and R2 ports can be up and working in less than 3 minutes!
The USB 2.0 interface supplied with the Asteribank server guarantees a reliable, extremely high bandwidth, hotpluggable
solution that is not dependent on a PRI PCI card. The USB 2.0 plug-and-play connection can support,
theoretically, over 3,000 concurrent calls on a single USB 2.0 port. The reliable, industry-standard USB connection
eliminates the costly, cumbersome PRI cards that are needed for standard channel bank support, and adds unique
features such as reliable fax support, transparent synchronization between Astribank units, an auxiliary system interface,
and more.
Astribank Chassis
Each 19” 1U rack-mountable Astribank chassis accommodates up to four modules. Multiple Astribank units may be connected
to a single Asterisk IP-PBX using different USB 2.0 ports, a USB 2.0 hub or a USB 2.0 PCI card.
Telecom Connector Option (TCO)
This option is available in units with 8 or more FXS ports. To streamline installation of multi-port systems, the TCO unites all
FXS ports on the Astribank unit into a single telecom connector on the real panel. All front panel indicators and RJ11 connectors
remain active and enable easy monitoring and maintenance. A cable for connecting the telecom connector to the patch-panel
is included.
Input/Output (I/O) Ports
Analog units with FXS modules support I/O ports. The two output ports enable activation/deactivation of peripheral devices
by dialing an extension number. A popular example of output port usage is to open a door by dialing an extension. The
four input ports create an off-hook event in Asterisk. The dial plan can be configured to use this function to dial an extension,
play a message, send an email, activate another device using the output ports, etc. Examples of possible input port
usage include forwarding a call to specific numbers, and playing a pre-recorded message if the fire/burglar alarm goes off.
