Introduction to the Linksys Voice System
Getting Started
SPA9000 IP PBX
The SPA9000 is an IP PBX that supports up to 16 phones. It also has a built-in Analog Telephone
Adapter (ATA) with two FXS ports for analog telephones, fax devices, or an external music
source for the music on-hold service. Devices connected to the FXS ports are not included in
the licence's device count.
The SPA9000 has four line interfaces, which can be configured in any combination for ITSP
service, ISDN access, SPA400 PSTN access, or SPA400 voice mail service. A different ITSP account
can be configured on each line interface. If a service provider supplies a group of sequential
direct inward dial (DID) phone numbers (such as 408-555-0100 through 555-0145) the SPA9000
can support all of the assigned numbers on a single line interface.
The SPA9000 includes an Auto Attendant service that plays pre-recorded voice messages to
offer the caller a menu of choices and to direct the call. When the Auto-Attendant is enabled, it
parses and operates on user input (key presses that produce DTMF tones) following the rules
specified in the Auto Attendant script on the SPA9000.
SPA400 SIP-PSTN Gateway and Voicemail Server
The SPA400 provides a SIP-PSTN gateway for voice connectivity between the PSTN and the
local client stations that are connected to the SPA9000. It also includes an integrated voice mail
application that supports up to 32 voice mail accounts with customized greetings, providing
LVS users the ability to receive and playback voice mail messages.
Each SPA400 occupies one of the four line interfaces on the SPA9000. The SPA400 has four ports
for that can be connected to PSTN or ISDN lines.
