asterisk users - Jul 2005 - massive outbound calling...

Does anyone know what kind of limitations asterisk has when it comes to
massive outbound dialing.. i.e.  how many sip/iax phones could be dialed
at the same time-- and if someone answered, play a .wav file?

Or outbound throughput on zaptel devices?

Say if I had a dual xeon with 2 quad t1 cards, hooked up to a 100mbit
lan.  Anyone know how many it could actually sustain w/o the voice file
being distorted on playback?

Again, the wiki is your best friend. http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk

It depends on a number of factors, start with codec. Read the Wiki.
