This configuration is typically used in order to connect your SOP with a Telecom operator via 4 basic access. The two analog interfaces are typically used in order to connect analog faxes or modems or any devices with embedded modems such as a postage machine.
This configuration has been validated on the following servers:
HP ML110G6
HP DL120G6
HP DL120G7
HP ML110G7
For this configuration you will need two B700, 4 BRI modules and 2 FXSs modules.
Requirements
First BRI port of each card need to be connected to an Operator BA (same clocking for each card)
All connected BRI port should be linked to the same Operator (same clocking)
BRI interfaces are only used to connect to an Operator, not an external PBX
This Standard Configuration guide is only applicable in those conditions and those are mandatory in case the card is used to connect faxes or modems. Other setups are project based.
Installation instructions
Step 0: Unconfigure the Sangoma Card Support 1 if any
If the module Sangoma Card Support v1 is already installed, execute the following in order to unconfigure it:
Remove all Woomera trunks
Remove the AnalogPhoneInterface
Remove the Card configured in the Zaptel module and reinstall this one
Do an apply change
Step 1: Install the Card in the server
Select a free PCI Express slot on your server and verify the required size of the front panel of the B700. If needed change the front panel.
Verify that both of your B700 FlexBri card has the two BRI modules and the FXS modules plugged in:
By default, do not connect the FXS module, unless the customer wants to connect a modem
Ensure both termination resistors that correspond to the module are set to OFF in order to have the BRI interface in TE mode:
Plug in the 4 Pin Molex Power Cord in the B700 in order to be able to use the FXSs interfaces. Depending of the server you might need a Molex Power Cord Extension Cable.
Plug the card in one of the PCI Express slots available on your server.
Step 2: Install the Sangoma Card Support module 2.3.0 or higher
Navigate to: SMP > Advanced > Modules Configuration
Install the module and reboot the SOP.
For version of sangoma module lower than 2.2 (deprecated):
Add or Edit 'Sangoma Card Support' and set the following parameters
Card Configuration: C2
Step 3: Configure the BRI interface
Navigate to: SMP > Resources > Interfaces
Add a SangomaBRI interface with the following settings:
Incoming interfaces: All BRIs
Restriction Group: incoming
The other settings such as the type of number and the numbering plan are to be configured has required by your provider.

It is important to have the first BRI interface always connected.
The B700 exposes 2 BRI ports on which the Y-cable splitter provided with the Card are to be plugged in.
The first port is the port which is the closest on to the PCI Express slot. On each end of the splitter has either the label 'n' or 'n+1'. The 'n' indicates the first interfaces of the port.
Step 8: Connect the Analog interfaces
The port the furthest of the PCI Express port is the Analog port on which a dedicated Y-cable splitter is provided with the Sangoma Card. Like for the BRIs interfaces, each end of the Y-cable is labelled with 'n' or 'n+1' in order identify the first and the second port.
