ISDN 2e and BT

ferretmaster · 25 Nov 2011 at 18:14

I am looking at ordering 2 isdn 2e lines with 4 combined channels for voice. I need 10 DDI's to go over the four channels. It is for a Cisco SRST gateway. Someone at BT mentioned Auxillary isdn 2e lines for combining channels. Does anyone know what i ask BT for?

4 lines enough? soon gets cheaper for an isdn 30e (8 channels min) if you will be adding more.

Its enough. Its only a small office.

Trying to get a clear answer from BT is a nightmare. Just need to know that it will present the 10 DDI's across the 4 channels no problem to the SRST Gateway.

Have you tried going via a BT Local Business reseller?

I have to go through BT. I thought someone may have set this up before on the forum?

We've got a similar setup at work, 2 phsical lines with 4 channels total and 3 MSN/DDI numbers, which are available from each of the channels / lines. No idea what method was used for ordering it but as I understand it it's a fairly normal setup for a BT ISDN 2e install.

Wow BT are still providing BRI!

we put 2xisdn2e for 4 lines in and have 10 ddis configured with the bundled BT PBX unit. Don't know about cisco stuff.
