[Freeswitch-users] Does Freeswitch replace Asterisk?

[João Mesquita]

Darío, thank you for remembering Khomp!

Antonio, I might be able to chime in here. The CallerID is probably not working in Brazil because we use a specific protocol called DTMF. Most US hard card developers have a hard time with that because the standard in the US is FSK (a different protocol). Khomp has DTMF signaling support for both FXO and FXS cards (meaning your regular analog phones with display can use "bina" as well).

Send me an email if you would like for more info. We support FreeSWITCH and Asterisk, for that matter.

Regards (Abraços),
