Q: 16
HOTSPOT Your company has a Microsoft Office 365 subscription. The company has offices in France, United States, and Belgium. You plan to implement Phone System to meet the following requirements: The office in Belgium must use SIP trunks from the current telecommunication provider. The office in France must integrate the phone number range and an on-premises IP-PBX. The office in the United States must minimize the infrastructure required to deploy the planned Phone System. You need to recommend which PSTN connectivity meets the requirements. Which PSTN connectivity should you recommend for each office? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

Not quite, for US it's Calling Plan since the goal is minimal infra; France and Belgium need Direct Routing.
Makes sense for Belgium to use Direct Routing, France with Direct Routing for the on-prem PBX, US should go Calling Plan.
Would Operator Connect work for the United States if we're trying to keep the setup light? Or does Belgium's SIP trunk need it too?
Calling Plan for US, Direct Routing for France and Belgium.
Looks like Direct Routing for all offices would fit here.
Direct Routing for every office seems right to me. Belgium's SIP trunks and France's on-prem PBX both require it, and I think US can use the same setup just for consistency, even if it's not the absolute minimum infra. Saw a similar question and Direct Routing worked fine.
I see why Direct Routing feels like a catch-all, but for US I would've picked Operator Connect instead since it's newer and still reduces infra, maybe even easier than Direct Routing. Anyone else think OC fits better for the US?
