This section provides an example on how to implement a remote telephone extension 
through the IP network, using FXO andFXS interfaces. In this configuration, the FXO 
device routes calls received from the PBX to the ‘Remote PBX Extension’ connected to the 
FXS device. The routing is transparent as if the telephone connected to the FXS device is 
directly connected to the PBX. 
The following is required: 
  FXO interfaces with ports connected directly to the PBX lines (shown in the figure 
below) 
  FXS interfaces for the 'remote PBX extension' 
  Analog phones (POTS) 
  PBX (one or more PBX loop start lines) 
  LAN network 
 
 
 
28.14.1  Dialing from Remote Extension (Phone at FXS) 
The following procedure describes how to dial from the 'remote PBX extension' (i.e., phone 
connected to the FXS interface). 
  To make a call from the FXS interface: 
1.  Off-hook the phone and wait for the dial tone from the PBX. This is as if the phone is 
connected directly to the PBX. The FXS and FXO interfaces establish a voice path 
connection from the phone to the PBX immediately after the phone is off-hooked. 
2.  Dial the destination number (e.g., phone number 201). The DTMF digits are sent over 
IP directly to the PBX. All the audible tones are generated from the PBX (such as 
ringback, busy, or fast busy tones). One-to-one mapping occurs between the FXS 
ports and PBX lines. 
3.  The call disconnects when the phone connected to the FXS goes on-hook.
