Yes, that's correct. FX stands for foreign exchange, and the letter on a port denotes the type of the thing that attaches to it. So it's FX "S"tation and FX "O"ffice. The easy way is to note tht most VOIP adaptors (for non-PBX use) have 1 or 2 FXS ports, for plugging in analog phones, and a FXO port is less usual. -- _____________________________________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- Check out the new Asterisk community forum at: https://community.asterisk.org/ New to Asterisk?
