Application Description
Connect IP PBX and XonTel XT-800FXO Gateway
XonTel XT-800FXO gateway is a solution to extend FXO ports for your PBX.
Two modes are available for you to connect PBX and XonTelXT-800FXO gateway, we
call them VoIPmode and SPS (Service Provider SIP)/SPX (Service Provider IAX)
mode. Three modes are available for you to connect your SIP server and XT-800FXO
Gateway. We call them SIP Account Mode, VoIP Mode and SPS (Service Provider
SIP) Mode. Youcan choose any one of the 3 modes to connect your SIP server and
XT-800FXO Gateway. SPS Mode is recommended.
Account Mode:
Create one SIP account on XT-800FXO Gateway, and take the SIP account to
register one SIP trunk on your SIP server. Then XT-800FXO Gateway and your SIP
server are connected by the account.
 Calls from SIP to PSTN
1) Create one outbound route on your SIP sever, and select the SIP trunk you
have registered just now.
2) Configure a “IP->Port” route on XT-800FXO Gateway, choose the SIP
account in the field “Call Source”, and choose a PSTN trunk or PSTN trunk
group in the field “Call Destination”.
3) Make a call from your SIP Server and the call should match the outbound

8
route dial rules.
 Calls from PSTN to SIP
1) Create an inbound route on your SIP server, and select the SIP trunk you
have registered just now.
2) Configure a “Port->IP” route on XT-800FXO Gateway, choose a PSTN trunk
or PSTN trunk group in the field “Call Source”, and choose the SIP account
in the filed “Call Destination”.
3) When a call comes to PSTN trunk on XT-800FXO Gateway, the call will be
routed to the destination of the SIP server inboundroute.
 Register SIP account on IP phone
With account mode, you can directly take the SIP account to register on your SIP
phone or softphone; then make calls from softphone though PSTN trunk on XT-
800FXO Gateway and receive incoming calls on your SIP phone or softphone. In
this way, you don’t have to set up any SIP server.
VoIP Mode
Takea SIP account from your SIP server, and register it on XT-800FXO Gateway asa
VoIP trunk. In this way, XT-800FXO and your SIP server areconnected.
 Calls from SIP to PSTN
1) Configure a IP-> Port route on XT-800FXO; choose the VoIP trunk in the field
“Call Source”, and choose PSTN trunk in the field “Call Destination”. Enable
Two-stage Dialing on the route.
2) Make a call from your SIP server, dial the SIP account number which is
registered on XT-800FXO Gateway. You will hear a dial tone, then dial the
external number out through PSTNtrunk.
 Calls from PSTN to SIP
1) Configure a Port->IP route on XT-800FXO, choose PSTN trunk in the field
“Call Source”, and choose the SIP trunk in the field “Call Destination”.
2) When an incoming call reaches PSTN trunk on XT-800FXO, you will hear a
dial tone, then dial an extension number of the SIPserver.
SPS Mode (Recommended)
Create a Service Provider SIP trunk on XT-800FXO to connect to your SIP server.
Add another Service Provider SIP trunk on your SIP server, connecting to XT-
800FXO.
 Calls from SIP to PSTN
1) Create one outbound route on your SIP sever, and select the SIP trunk you
have created just now.
2) Configure a IP->Port route on XT-800FXO, choose the SPS trunk in the field
“Call Source”, and choose PSTN trunk in the field “Call Destination”.
3) Make a call from your SIP Server and the call should match the outbound
route dial rules.
 Calls from PSTN to SIP

1) Configure a Port->IP route on XT-800FXO Gateway, choose PSTN trunk in
the field “Call Source”, and choose the SPS trunk in the field “Call
Destination”.
2) Create one inbound route on your SIP server and select the SIP trunk created
just now.
3) When an incoming call reaches PSTN trunk on XT-800FXO Gateway, You
will hear a dial tone, then dial an extension number of the SIP Server, it will
be routed to the destination of the SIP server inbound route.
Note: if you want the call to go directly to the destination number of your SIP
server, you don’t have to create an inbound route on SIP server, instead set a
Hotline number on XT-800FXO Gateway route.
Figure 2-2 Connect IP PBX and XT-800FXO Gateway
For incoming calls from the PSTN to XT-800FXO Gateway, XT-800FXO Gateway will
forward the call to a configured SIP extension or to an inbound destination of IP PBX
like IVR.
Connect XT-800FXO Gateway and FXS Gateway
XT-800FXO Gateway can be connected to a FXS Gateway using SPS/SPX Mode.
Imagine this, the FXO gateway is set up in Site A, and the FXS gateway in Site B.
People in Site B can make and receive calls using the local PSTN lines (which is
connnected to Site A’s provoider). With this solution, you can call a local number
using a local PSTN line wherever you are.

Hangup Detection
Hangup Type
Select which kind of hangup type will be used to detect the
call and hang up.
Busy Detection
Enable or disable Busy Detection. It is used for detecting far

14
end hangup or busy signal.
Busy Count
If Busy Detection is enabled, it is also possible to specify
how many busy tones to wait for before hanging up. The
default is 4, but better results can be achieved if this setting
is set as 6 or 8. Higher value requires more time for
detection, but lower the probability that a false detection may
occur.
Busy Interval
Set the busy detection interval.
Busy Pattern
If Busy Detection is enabled, you need to specify the
cadence of the busy signal. If a busy pattern is not specified,
the system will accept any repeating sound-silence pattern
as a busy signal. If a busy pattern is specified, then the
system will check the length of the sound and the silence
patterns, which will further reduce the chance of a false
positive.
Frequency
Detection
Enable or disable Frequency Detection, it is used for
frequency detection.
Busy Frequency
If Frequency Detection is enabled, you must specify the local
frequency.
Hangup Polarity
Detection
Enable or disable Polarity Detection. The call will be
considered as “hang up” on a polarity reversal.
Silence Timeout
Define the ring out value for this port.
Answer Detection Type
Answer Detection
Type
Answer Detection settings are configured for accurate billing.
Select which type to detect the call as answered.
1) Default.XT-800FXO Gateway will start to charge once
you grab the PSTN trunk to call out, whether the call is
answered or not.
2) Polarity Detection: If the PSTN line supports polarity, you
can choose "Polarity detection". When the callee answers
the call, the provider will send a polarity signal, and then XT-
800FXO Gateway starts to bill.
3) Ring back Tone: If you choose this option, XT-800FXO
Gateway will charge the call according to PSTN ring back
tone detection. When the "ring duration" or the "ring interval
duration" detected on XT-800FXO Gateway is larger than
the standard or custom parameters, the call is detected as
ANSWERED.
*Standard parameters: when you configure the "Tone Zone
Settings" you get the country's standard tone parameters.
Custom Ring Tone
Enable or disable Custom Ring Tone. If the custom ring tone
is enabled, you need to configure the following settings
according to the ring back signal.
Max Ring
Duration
Max duration of the ring tone.

15
Max Ring Interval
Duration
Max pause between the two ring tones.
Min Ring
Detection
Enable Min Ring Detection, which is useful for complex
situations, like when jitter or noise occurs on the PSTN line.
Generally it is disabled.
Min Ring Duration
Min duration of the received tone.
Min Ring Interval
Duration
Min pause between the two received tones.
Caller ID Setting
Caller ID
Detection
Enable or disable caller ID detection.
Caller ID Start
This option allows one to define the start of a caller ID signal.
Ring: start to detect when a ring is received
Polarity: start to detect when a polarity reversal is started
Before Ring: start to detect before a ring tone
Caller ID
Signaling
This option defines the type of caller ID signaling to use.
Bell-USA: US standard
V23-UK: UK standard
V23-Japan: Japanese standard
V23-Japan Pure: Japanese standard
DTMF: DTMF signal
Please check with your PSTN service provider to configure
Caller ID Settings. If you don’t know how to configure, please
contact XonTel support.
Other Settings
Ring Detect
Timeout
There should be a timeout to determine if there is a hang up
before the line is answered. Range from 3000 to 8000.
Default is 8000 ms.
Port Group
Port group is a feature that allows you to define specific PSTN trunks to a group. A
trunk group can be used in a route. When a call is coming or going through the route,
an available trunk would be selected in the trunk group. There are two ring strategies
supported for Port Group:
Round-Robin: select the next available port in line.
Least Used: select the port that is least used.
