Is telus pots over gpon voip or rf over glass or what is it
- It is packet voice using voip protocols. Or digital voice.
Because the connection is end to end private and quality of service priority tagging is applied to the traffic for low jitter allowing most analog applications like fax and alarm circuits to work unmodified. But not fully compatible with modem technologies that used aggressive pcm modulations like 33.6k baud or 56k modem speeds. Some lifeline style devices have problems due to sending dtmf digits at higher rate than the adapter can support and require replacement. 14.4k modem and faxing is reliable on it, 33.6k is not.
It is not rf over glass. Telus routes all data including voice as packets on the new fiber network, not an analog wave modulation.
You can look up the protocols the ont supports:
• Maximum REN: 4
• G.711A/μ, G.729a/b, and G.722 encoding/decoding
• T.30/T.38/G.711 fax mode
• DTMF
• Emergency calls (with the SIP protocol)
Ah yes you are right - the phone service is connected to the RJ11 jack on the ONT - and not the 3200 as I had mistakenly said. In any case I think my question still stands - can I access the Home Phone service over the ethernet feed from the ONT rather than via the ATA and RJ11 jack? I'm suspecting the answer is negative if Telus is reselling RingCentral for VOIP service.
No, I thought I was clear on this. The Telus home phone service is on a completely private network. It cannot be accessed beyond the ONT. There is no way to have home phone over the ethernet jacks. It does not exist on the Internet. It is on a separate private network.
If you want over the top style voip that would be a different product.

OK. Thanks for your explanations and advice.
