Testimonials This is our first install with Xorcom FXS analog modules, and we have to say they work a lot easier than the 'other' FXS/FXO PCI cards of your competitors. Casper Kamp, CEO - Checkmarq Xorcom provides hardware interfaces in the Astribank USB channel banks. This is genius Michael Graves, VoIP blogger We chose the Xorcom IP-PBX as our voice platform for the EPICAcce because it includes a complete voice solution that integrates seamlessly with legacy and VoIP PBX environments. Shlomo Shur, CEO - EasyRun "...To get around this problem of having to use expensive T1 cards that are tied to a single server, Xorcom shuns T1 cards and uses good old USB 2.0 for its interface to the PC..." George Ou ZDNet I've found Xorcom support to be extremely responsive when needed. Kenn10 PBX in a Flash Forum
