Configuring POTS capability on the MAX 6000 and
MAX 3000
The MAXPOTS FXS slot card provides Plain Old Telephone Service (POTS) functionality to
the MAX. The Foreign Exchange Station (FXS) designation indicates that the POTS ports
provide subscriber loop functionality, including loop current, supervision, and signaling,
similar to that provided by the telephone company’s Central Office.
The expansion card (Figure 4-18) provides eight RJ11 POTS ports for the attachment of
telephones, fax machines, and answering machines.The MAXPOTS FXS slot card enables
users to place calls between POTS ports and T1 trunks (inband signaling or PRI), POTS ports
and E1 trunks (PRI or R2), or between two POTS ports. Up to four MAXPOTS FXS slot cards
can be installed in a MAX 6000-T1 or a MAX 6000-E1. The MAXPOTS FXS card is also
available on the MAX 3000 T1, E1 and BRI.

You must configure the MAX to route outbound calls to the Public Switched Telephone
Network (PSTN) and to route incoming calls to POTS devices connected to the MAXPOTS
card.

Caution: You must insert any expansion card with its label facing down. You can damage a
MAX unit by incorrectly installing a slot card.
