How can I connect a PBX to my existing incoming POTS line?

Q: I am an emergency management coordinator and have an in-office phone system that I want to expand. How can I connect a PBX to my existing incoming POTS line?

A: It depends on the phone system you have. We carry a wide range of FXO SIP Gateways that interface with POTS lines. 

FXO Gateways connect your devices to an outside telephone line and support Failover or Fallback in the event of internet failure or a network crash. An FXO gateway can be implemented to provide access to multiple POTS lines.
