[Asterisk-Users] Examples of hardware implementations
Can some people post some configurations they've implemented when deploying an * system for let's say 25-50 stations and maybe a larger 200 station system? I would assume some kind of chassis with some DSP boards and some kind of system board with a hard drive for running the system and storing the voice mails - obviously I'm interested in specific chassises and boards used and how they've fared. I'm interested to find out what kind of off-the-shelf chassises and boards are available out there and what people have found work well, what issues people have had with heat dissipation, etc. Thanks, Philip Trauring

[Asterisk-Users] Examples of hardware implementations
Asterisk runs on any PC hardware that runs Linux, from that old PII sitting in the closet gathering dust to that 4-way Xeon blade server in a rack, and beyond, and all points in between. Digium has a line of PCI cards that work with Asterisk for T1/E1 lines, ISDN PRIs, analog POTS lines, etc. For more you can visit the Wiki at http://www.voip-info.org Look under the Asterisk section, they have several case studies in there.

I would assume some kind of chassis with some DSPFor a 25-50 station or even 200 station system your typical PC will work just fine. Store the voicemails etc on the internal hard drive. Running a PBX really does not take much computing power at all unless we are talking about hundreds of simultaneously active channels (like you might find in a company with thousands and thousands of employees). -- Tracy Reed http://copilotcom.com This message is cryptographically signed for your protection.
