VoSKY Exchange Pro VIT1/E1 User Manual
1. Introduction
VoSKY breaks through another technological barrier with the VoSKY
Exchange Pro VIT1/E1, providing a Skype-certied solution for virtually every
type of PBX equipment. With this rack-mountable, business-class, PBX
gateway for Skype, small- and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) can nally
take advantage of the largest free VoIP network in the world to connect,
communicate, and collaborate with employees, customers, and partners.
VoSKY Exchange Pro VIT1/E1
Exchange Pro VIT1/E1 differs from our current Windows-based devices in the
market. Using Linux as the operating system, this stable and secure platform
can support 23/30 simultaneous Skype calls without compromising voice
quality and greatly improving efciency. Your PBX should have an available
E1/T1 port to connect with the Exchange Pro VIT1/E1. Exchange Pro VIT1/E1
provides access to Skype lines for every extension in the ofce-even to those
without computer access. The user simply places and receives Skype calls
from their ofce phone.
Exchange Pro VIT1/E1 includes a unique set of features that separate it from
the competition in the VoIP market. There is no need to install any software.
Just connect it to the PBX, power it on, and begin using it.
Rack Mountable: The VoSKY Exchange Pro VIT1/E1 is a stand alone, rack-
mountable FXS PBX gateway that does not require a PC. This plug&play

appliance seamlessly integrates with any existing PBX through the E1/T1 card
to add up to 23/30 lines to Skype. Calls to other Skype users are free, while
calls to non-Skype users are charged at low-cost SkypeOut rates.
Phonebook: Public Contacts and Private Contacts. As an administrator, you
can create and manage Public Contacts as well as view the Private Contacts
information of a normal user. As a normal user, you can create and manage
Private Contacts as well as view the Public Contacts information.
Web Management: Supports Web Remote management, as an administrator,
you can view the Skype status and set up the Exchange Pro VIT1/E1 through
web login.
Call Log: Contains all details of a call, including date, caller, callee, call
destination, call type, call duration, rate per minute, total call charges and
connection fee. With Call Log, you can query the telephone number or Skype
ID of the caller and/or callee. Exchange Pro VIT1/E1 can even detect the
call rate of SkypeOut when using Skype2.5 or above and calculates each
call’s total cost. The administrator can get a quick look at recent call trafc by
reviewing the graph of the total calls per day and review a detailed call record
through the Call Log.
Company Skype ID: VoSKY Exchange Pro VIT1/E1 provides 23/30 Skype
accounts. Choose one as your Company Skype ID (we recommend using the
Skype ID of the rst port). This mechanism is compatible with calls initiated by
both Skype 2.x and 3.x. The Company Skype ID is used as the primary Skype
contact to be called by remote Skype users into your Exchange to reach your
phone system.
VoSKY Smart Dialing: With VoSKY Smart Dialing, you can make SkypeOut
calls using a simpler dialing format without the need to dial the country code.
