Hi, Is this card the same as the T410P, after all, it's made by Digium. There's one prior reference on the mailint list[1] but it didn't answer the question. There was also an SS7 status report[2] last June but it's doesn't seem to have lead anywhere either. There was post saying an SS7 release was immenent last September[3], but then silence. Any info anyone would like to share? Thanks in advance, [1] http://lists.digium.com/pipermail/asterisk-users/2004-September/062882.html [2] http://lists.digium.com/pipermail/asterisk-users/2004-June/052198.html [3] http://lists.digium.com/pipermail/asterisk-users/2004-September/062872.html -- Martijn van Oosterhout Ecomtel Pty Ltd

If you can't spend a small amount of effort to digest the history that becomes your problem. If you had used the mailing list navigation to go to the previous message you would have also been presented with a more complete quote that mentioned the E400P-SS7. You would note that the part number came from the openss7.com website. If you read the news link in that message you would have seen that these are available for a different price than the Digium T400P or E400P cards. You also have to purchase them from openss7.com. It is not reasonable for a Digium reseller to change the price to a higher than list price amount unless they are adding something else to the pot. In this case, the card is highly likely to be the T400P or E400P card but include non GPL code to run the SS7 stack. And just for being highly explicit in the answer to you. No the E400P-SS7 card is not the same as the TE410P or TE405P card. Also just having the card is not enough to get SS7 support yet.> There was also an SS7 status report[2] last June but it's doesn't seem to > have lead anywhere either.

Hi, it is the same hardware, but with a firmware by Brian F. G. Bidulock. It has nothing to do with the libisup project, Steve Underwood wrote several times within this mailing list and soon will be made public as SS7 support for asterisk with that Digium card. Roger.

When I learned about that other project, Steve Underwood was talking here, I gave up looking after the asterisk-SS7 project by OpenSS7, and begun supporting that libisup project for asterisk. You mentioned my very old status reports. I think, I already wrote about that change in the early autumn, but then got silent, because Steve gave some statements, and he is more involved in that project than me. Could I clarify hereby the advances of my SS7 interest and the status reports you mentioned? Roger.
Hello Everyone, Just for the record, the E400P-SS7 Is IDENTICAL to Digium's E400P, and the T400P-SS7 is IDENTICAL to Digium's T400P (NOT Their new TE410/TE405P). There is no additional 'software' on the card, since all firmware is uploaded to the Xilinx during driver modprobe. An E400P-SS7 can be readily interchanged with a E400P and vise versa.
