In Qatar , most of the call centers even today running on PRI uplink from Ooredoo. Even though most of the area now in Qatar covered by Fiber optics , some areas still don’t have SIP options from IPS’s . So most installations of 3CX , Asterisk or Microsoft LYNC servers requires PRI gateways. ( Rarely some companies use normal analog trunks, in that case you may need Analog Gateways ) . Popular PRI gateway options are shown below.
