Abstract
A device and method for IP telephony troubleshooting include multiple alternative input/output members for connecting the troubleshooting device to an IP telephony network at one of multiple sites within the IP telephony network. A system control connected to one of the connector members transmits and receives digital control messages to establish a bidirectional audio communications link over the IP telephony network. A system control user interface connected to the system control enables a user to direct a call to a remote telephonic device. A converter, connected to one of the connector members, converts digital audio signals received from the remote telephonic device to analog audio signals and converts analog audio signals generated by a microphone to digital audio signals for transmission to the remote telephonic device. An interface obtains synchronization with the remote telephonic device to facilitate synchronous data communication. In an alternative embodiment, the IP telephony troubleshooting device is an IP telephony adaptor for an analog telephony troubleshooting device.
