[Asterisk-Users] void your warranty and get a 3.3V/5V TE405P
http://www.mixdown.ca/~asterisk/ The card seems to be working fine. Don't expect warranty on it though. :-) Why? Because I wanted a quad-span T1 card which worked in the high-end systems I was intending it for, but that I could also keep a few in stock and if the system mainboard failed, pull the card an put it in a standard PC system. I didn't want to have to stock 3.3V and 5V exclusive cards, and the TE405P hardware looked like it could handle it. I am sure that Digium goofed when they gave the card a 5V PCI card edge instead of a universal 3.3V/5V one -- Hopefully their next batch of TE405P cards will have a universal card edge and they will phase out the TE410P. Again -- THIS WILL VOID YOUR WARRANTY. It's a USD$1500 card. if you can't eat the cost of a broken card, don't do this. Regards, Andrew

The mainboard that said it had 3.3V slots did not.
