Do you want to route calls from one PRI to the other without having any SIP involved for these calls? If this is the case the I'll have to ask my Audiocodes contacts about it.
Yes, certain calls will be routed only between PRI interfaces, as the calls may be free of charge and loading VoIP sessions with those calls is unnecessary.
As another option, you can also get PRI cards that you install in the FS server itself that might prove cheaper (if you have the space). You could quite easily handle both PRI-PRI and PRI-SIP calls in the FS dialplan.
Some times ago I had this discussion on IRC about what is better to use in a failover environment: internal PRI cards or external VoIP gateways. So in case of connection two or more servers to a legacy PBX with only two PRI inputs, an external gateway is a better solution, despite internal cards a cheaper. Also if you have a PRI phone provider, in case of an FS server failing you have to manually switch the cable. But I will look to this links. -- Mimiko desu.
