Lee,

FXS (Foreign eXchange Station) is an interface which drives a telephone.
FXS interfaces get phones plugged into them, delivery battery, and provide
ringing. FXS interfaces are signalled with FXO signalling.

FXO (Foreign eXchange Office) is an interface that connect to a phone line.
They supply your PBX with access to the public telephone network. FXO
interfaces use FXS signalling. FXS interfaces are what allow you to hook
telephones to your PBX, and FXO interfaces allow you to connect your PBX to
real analog phone lines.
