<span style>I have a site right now that has a 2821 router doing SRST. It has 2 POTS lines for E-911 dial out. We actually have all they're inbound and outbound calls being handled by a different site</span><div style>
<br></div><div style>It has 5 phones, and 2 ATA's (They really only need 1 ATA for a fax machine, so it could even be a card on the 2821). We also have Emergency Responder, but are still dealing with our LEC to get an account to submit updates, so it's not fully utilized.</div>
<div style><br></div><div style>I have a new site that will require about 20-25 phones, but the site will be temporary for about 8-9 months.</div><div style><br></div><div style>I've been asked if we can move the 2821 to the site, and put *something* else in the first location for the duration. Of course, this is under/unfunded project.</div>
<div style><br></div><div style>I've got (2) 2851 on the shelf, both with IPBASE software, and NO PVDM's. (They both have Dualport T1 vwic2, and VIC2 FXO's)</div><div style><br></div><div style>So what are my cost effective (Read Cheap) options.</div>
<div style><br></div><div style>What I see are:</div><div style>1. Leave the existing site alone, and buy a IPVOICE license for one of my existing 2851, as well as PVDM's</div><div style>2. Move the existing site hardware to the new site, and buy something to back fill, can I get something very small? 881 router?</div>
<div style>3. Can I use something like a VG202 or something to route the E911 calls out, and just hope we never have a WAN failure? (It's only staffed two days a week, with 3 people max)</div>
