Alcatel 4400 - Cisco H323 VG

[Amine-K]

Hi,

We need to integrate an Alcatel 4400 PBX with our Cisco CallManager 6.1 using a Cisco 2811 H323 VG.

We will use an Alcatel PRA-2 card on the Alcatel PBX and an E1 card on Cisco VG.

The link will use QSIG.

1- What kind of cable should we use? (straight, crossed, 1-2-4-5...)

2- Is there any updated doc detailing the Cisco and Alcatel configuration?

3- Is there any special requirements for this integration, any recommendations...?

Thanks for your help.

Hi there, did you have any luck with this?

Hi,

Yes we did it.

First, one of Alcatel guys must do Alcatel config for you.

Second, we put a Cisco VG and connected the Alcatel PBX via an E1 (1/2/4/5 connection).

Please find the configuration of the controller :

interface Serial0/0/1:15
   no ip address
   encapsulation hdlc
   isdn switch-type primary-qsig
   isdn overlap-receiving
   isdn incoming-voice voice
   isdn negotiate-bchan
   isdn sending-complete
   no cdp enable

Attached a Cisco doc describing the Alcatel configuration steps.

Good Luck !
