The AU-600 is a USB device which provides a traditional PSTN FXO and FXS interface to a Windows machine running the Skype VoIP client software. It allows users to use a regular analog telephone as the audio device on their Skype client, as well as rudimentary call routing between the Skype network and the PSTN. Some users have also successfully used the AU-600 in concert with an FXO port on an Asterisk server as a single-channel gateway between their Asterisk call routing and the Skype network (A sort of hardware chan_skype). They are available for purchase online from a seemingly endless number of VoIP vendors for around USD$50.
