asterisk users - Sep 2006 - Rack for Asterisk with TDM2400 Digium board

Hi,

I have a client who wants a call center with 16 analog
FXO modules.
I offered him a solution with a 1U or 2U rack and
Digium TDM2400 card.
I know that there mother board compatability issue
with the Digium cards, so 
can anyone suggest a barebone 1U or 2U server (I
prefer the SuperMicro 
Superservere series) with a Mother board that is
compatible with the Digium 
TDM2400 card (which is a Full Length PCI card).

Thank you and best regards,

Antoine Megalla

 I wouldn't recommend anything less than a 4RU machine from SuperMicro
with the size of the TDM2400 card.

The TDM2400P was designed in a way that it would not have all the 
motherboard compatibility issues that the other cards have had in the 
past.  As far as I know, you should be safe with pretty much any 
motherboard that you can fit it in.

Even though it might work, you should realy consider using Quad span
T1s with channel banks, or Xorcoms Astribank solutions.
