Automatic Ring-down Configuration
Automatic Ring Down (ARD) is a dedicated, point-to-point voice system. When one telephone is taken off-hook,
the other telephone rings without the need to dial. Two modules connected via the fiber ports (a telephone device
at each end) is the requirement for this configuration. Automatic Ring Down is supported when both converters
are configured to FXO Mode. Automatic Ring Down is also supported when both converters are configured to
FXS Mode.
Note
: Both modules MUST be configured for Automatic Ring-Down.
