Presenting VOIP as an ISDN/BRI trunk

I'm trying to identify a hardware device that will allow me to present a
VoIP service as and ISDN/BRI trunk. I know there are many analogue
equivalents, but I'm aiming to connect our office switch to a VoIP provider,
but only have the options of PRI and BRI trunks.

Anyone got any ideas?

I've used a Sipura SPA3000 connected to an analogue extension. I would dial
the extension number of the SPA and be presented with a VOIP dial tone.

The Fritz!Box Fon from AVM has an ISDN port, you can connect it to the
analogue exchange line ports of a PABX and do it that way perhaps..? I
don't know, I've never used ISDN but it's in the blurb for the device, see
www.avm.de/en

Hi

Vegastream do business grade ones , But be prepaired for a shock as to cost.
they have 2 types avalible one with 4 BRI and one 4 BRI + 4
If its one or 2 BRI you need have a look at AVM boxes.

Actually, that was a bit terse, wasn't it ?

A cheap PC running Asterisk under Linux (both free), with a cheap (£300)
Digium E1 card (for PRI) or an AVM BRI card (1,2,or 4 port), and you can
trunk out (or receive) SIP, IAX2 or H.323 traffic really well.
