Thanks Mitul, The server spec is okay but I need information on the fxs hardware to use.

So you will need nine such cards; and for reasons of simple numbers of slots on a motherboard, they will have to be split among three or more servers, linked to a gigabit switch. You might end up getting a better deal if you bought 1000 hardware SIP phones.

Thank you all, I will look at the options and work on them.

+1 spending money to get that many fxs ports is going to negate any savings of reusing analog phones instead of buying ip phones 1000 analog ports sounds like hell and if it was me I would be embarrassed to have a setup like that tied to my name if I was a consultant etc. Someone will come in after you and ask who set it up and the customer will say you :) On Feb 17, 2016 4:23 AM, "A J Stiles" <asterisk_list at earthshod.co.uk> wrote:> On Wednesday 17 Feb 2016, Goke Aruna wrote: > > Hello all, > > Can someone recommend what hardware to use for a 1000 analogue line > > capacity asterisk PABX? > > > > Regards > > A PCI express card with four primary rate ISDN ports, each linked up to a > channel bank, will give you 120 analogue lines.
