# Direct or Trunk Mode?
There are a few fundamental differences between Direct Mode and Trunk Mode.
Direct Mode is designed for a single endpoint such as an Analog Telephone Adapter (ATA) or an IP Phone.
Trunk Mode is designed to be used with a PBX system, either hardware based such as an NEC SL1100 or a software based solution, such as FusionPBX. With trunk mode, you will handle options such as voicemail and other intelligent routing on your PBX system.
If you are unsure which option to select, please lodge a Support Request.
