The Patton SN4141 FXS device allows users to connect analog telephones to a VoIP network, facilitating communication through extensions created on the Vodia PBX. After logging in to the device and setting up extensions, users can utilize the Patton Wizard to configure FXS ports, entering necessary details such as the number of ports and the PBX IP address. Once the configuration is completed, it's uploaded to the device for it to register with the PBX, enabling seamless connectivity for analog devices in a VoIP environment.
