NetBox version

v3.2.7

Feature type

Change to existing functionality

Proposed functionality

Missing phone interface types, for correct mapping:

Telephone

TYPE_ANALOG = 'analog'
TYPE_S0 = 's0'
TYPE_UP0 = 'up0'

And also Cable types for ATM (xDSL) and phone lines (interconnects):
TYPE_DSL = 'dsl-2-wire' (All sorts of DSL (xDSL, ADSL, VDSL) and Analog or UP0
TYPE_ISDN = 'isdn-4-wire' (S0, UP0, Analog, and DSL capable)

Use case

Add ability to model PBX physical connections to other PBX for legacy devices from many vendors. Also to document analog to VoIP using ATA in racks. Still common.

Currently used by vendors like:
AVM, CISCO, GRANDSTREAM, ATOS, AudioCodes

Database changes
