5100 SIP to ISDN converter - ISDN to SIP gateway

SIP to ISDN converter

Our SIP to ISDN converter will let your ISDN phone system connect to VoIP - just plug it in. If your current ISDN phone system doesn't support SIP VoIP and you want to take advantage of cheap VoIP phone lines or any VoIP service without changing it then you need a SIP to ISDN converter / ISDN to SIP converter (SIP gateway). Unplug from your BT ISDN box(es) and plug into the converter, your phone system doesn't know anything has changed.

We will configure the SIP to ISDN converter / SIP gateway with the details of your chosen SIP VoIP provider, you unplug from the ISDN & plug into the SIP VoIP to ISDN converter and start saving money.

It is by far easiest to implement as well as the cheapest non DNS SRV ISDN system to SIP converter

There is a carrier issue where if a DDI is called via some mobile networks and the user on your phone system has set their calls to forward to an external number the caller may not hear ringing before the person answers.

Select the correct unit below to match your type of ISDN & the number of channels.

ISIP 30 - 10 channels£ 660
ISIP 30 - 20 channels£ 840
ISIP 30 - 30 channels£ 960

You will need us to set it up and configure it for £20.


ISDN to SIP Converter

Zero Configeration

You do zero configuration on the unit, we will do for you, to program the converter we will need to know:

  1. SIP account details as supplied by your provider
  2. Public IP address the ISDN to SIP converter will present when making calls
  3. The IP address / subnet / gateway it will use when in operation
  4. The number of "digits to line" your phone system is setup to receive
  5. The area code that people omit when calling local numbers
  6. The number it should present when no presentation number is provided

Set the Firewall Rules

You will need to enable SIP and RTP port forwarding in your firewall, and lock them to your VoIP exchange. In a Draytek 2860 or newer this takes 20 minutes, if you want us to do this for you we can and will charge our normal support rates.

Ports Locked to VoIP Exchanges

CTi Remote Support
