How do I pass normal telephone line(s) threw a LAN?

Question

I would like to pass 1 or more telephone lines to a distant location threw a tcp/ip connection (lan) and export the line(s) threw some equipment to normal phones (no ip phones).

So there should be something like this:

line --- equipment --- wifi ---equipment---- normal phone.

I am working on networks but never worked on voip or anything like that. So I would like to know what kind of equipment (except lan equipment) should I use in order to achieve it Thank you.

Answer 1

You need an FXO box (for first equipment) and an FXS box for second one. There are lots of such devices as well as routers' modules. You need them both to support the same VoIP protocol, most probably SIP or H323.

Then you need to configure FXO to pass all incoming calls directly to FXS's ip address and FXS to pass all calls directly to FXO's.

Later you can add some IP pbx between them to implement more advanced call routing schemes.
