[VoIP] Mitel Smart-1 Pulse to DTMF converter

[John Novack]

Doug Alderdice  is the Smart-1 in this arena.
Did he ever get his power back?
Used Smart-1's need to be thoroughly checked, since older ones had NiCad 
batteries that leaked and ruined the unit.
The Sangoma A200 card may be a better bet in the long run
I have just finished a session with them on getting them to make pulse 
dial work properly on their A200 card.
Not the lowest cost solution, but a good one
For six FXS ports you would need one expansion board.
Break even for T1 is probably at 8 ports, depending on what you pay for 
a used channel bank off eBay
