As we dive: we might send connected birthday greetings to a man who put the sea floor to use, Clarence Mackay; he was born on this date in 1874. An early telecom entrepreneur, he supervised the completion of the first transpacific cable between the United States and the Far East in 1904. He laid a cable between New York and Cuba in 1907, and later established cable communication with southern Europe via the Azores and with northern Europe via Ireland. And in 1928, he became the first to combine radio, cables, and telegraphs under one management. (He sold his business, Postal Telegraph and Cable Corporation, to International Telephone and Telegraph Company [ITT] for an enormous amount of stock… just in time for the stock market crash in 1929, which wiped him out. He survived the Great Depression by selling his art and antiques.)

@Slash909uk @phlash Oh! I had forgotten I had these online. These are from when we built Genie Internet for Cellnet - Originally on the Telex floor (where Wireplay was), and then we had to move it up to the 5th or 6th onto my office floor, where the corporate networks hung out. This was the install record, sadly taken on a 1999 digital camera, sorry! I had a skim, there's nothing in there that would be considered classified these days.

https://lorry.org/Genie/

The Celnet Genie service, which we designed as an "ISP in a box", was pretty amazing, really, especially for an essentially free ISP.

Also, it's one of those odd jobs where you end up as both lead applications architect, systems manager, server builder, removal dude, and underfloor cable rat and crimper in the same project. I feel jobs like that in big corporations tend not to exist any more.

Now the other two are ported - all the #analogue #trunks are ceased and all traffic to and from the #PSTN from this #PBX is now #VOIP (using #PJSIP trunks on #FreePBX )

I disconnected all the analogue lines as #Openreach leave battery on them, that way they show as RED alarm on #Asterisk and won't be selected for any calls (worst case is they return a busy trunk status and the route will go to the next trunk, but I've taken away all the analogue circuits from every PSTN route)

Good luck with that.

European countries have observed that the US can not be a reliable ally. They have watched communications being switched off over Ukraine to suit Musk and Russia. They have seen the mad dog in the White House killing on personal whim. Why use US services and equipment in the future - it doesn’t make sense.

I made up a folder for all my #telecoms tech info (for two #PBX I built, general #SIP #VOIP and #ATA configurations and other useful stuff as much is easier to read in paper form than on the screen!)

I thought the "Trunks" cartoon from @alex was a good choice for the cover, along with the "ELEPHANT EXCHONGE" lettering from a Telephone Exchange in SE England (after #Openreach engineers moved the individual letters around) 😁

There's other stuff in the folder than the Ofcom and ITU documents, about internal configs but I can't share it for cybersecurity reasons (I will put the sanitised info on my blog at some point to help others setting up VOIP systems)

#stationery #crafts

One (1) #telephone number successfully ported to #VOIP, one more left to go (there's 2 pairs for main and aux line, provisioned on same number but those will go to 3 channel #SIP trunk)

For some reason #Openreach have left battery on the pair (I would have thought they would want to recover capacity on the line card and it would just go dis, as there are still going to be a handful of customers remaining on #PSTN circuits.

I thought a lot of "analogue" trunks these days were literally just a SIP ATA connected to the copper pair at the Telephone Exchange (or from a street cabinet) but it looks like Openreach really are getting the last out of the old #SystemX kit!

There is no dialtone or even NU tone, just some noise..

Just spent half day reconfiguring #SIP trunks on #FreePBX and #Asterisk (using chan_pjsip) as one of our providers silently yoinked #IAX2 support - #VOIP is as cursed if not more so than #PSTN / #ISDN circuits, except you don't have to crawl around as much in corners and roofspaces amongst spiders, mouse-like rodents and possibly snakes (if you have them in your country), and there's less chance of ending up on the wrong side of 100-120 volts (either AC or DC, depending on whether its ringing voltage or the strong DC voltage that British Telecom and others used to send down certain ISDN lines in 90s/00s)
