Hi Mortiz,

The system requirements are not really a matter of Asterisk with Sip.
Posting some more information in regads to number of Sip clients, codec
requirements, number transcoding streams, etc would be more beneficial in
determing what the system requirements are.

SIP is basically just text that sets up and tears down calls (with DTMF
signalling, etc.)  but the real load comes from RTP streams that the SIP
sessions handle.

I would suggest learning more about SIP and also reading
http://www.voip-info.org.

Best Regards,
