Setting up some old WE and AE phones and maybe a 1A2 system on the C*NET collectors network. The method of routing calls is for your Asterisk tandem to hand the call off to another switch over an analog trunk and send a DID (after all, many members on the C*NET network have a Step by Step switch on the other end).

Everything I have laying around the house won't handle analog DID's. I've got a ShoreTel system that I know won't handle analog DID's or pulse dialing, and I have rotary phones. I've got a Panasonic KX-TD50 that I'm pretty sure will play nice with rotary, but not analog DID's, and a Mitel 3300 that I am also pretty sure won't accept DID's form an analog trunk.

So, time to find an old, used, otherwise forgotten key system or PBX that will play nice with analog DID's. Does anyone know of a system I might be able to find used that for sure supports DID's on an analog trunk?

Thanks!

Man, I had an old option 11 (and I mean really old, but who cares) in the basement until I moved a couple of years ago.

Not a bad suggestion. I was looking for something a little smaller since I'm in an apartment, but that might do the trick.

Cheap and easy. I think that's the winner.

I actually discovered that my Mitel can in fact do analog DID...but it does;t look like analog extensions can be pulse dial.

Should be able to pick up a used legend for not much at all. Thanks!
