What do you mean by "get 300 simultaneous calls"? If you plan on using that platform as a PSTN gateway, using multiple Digium TE4xxP cards, the answer is probably not. Assuming that you will want to save on bandwidth costs by using a codec that provides a substantial degree of compression (G.729), there's no way that the spec'd box will transcode 300 channels. If Digium's (rather sparse) dimensioning information is to be believed, you'd need three such boxes to terminate that load. On the other hand, if your box will simply be serving as a gateway to gain the significant bandwidth savings afforded by IAX2 trunking, and relying on other hardware to actually terminate the calls, then yes, it could do handle that load and more, since it is functioning as little more than a router in that role. IF you are able to use asterisk and take advantage of IAX2 trunking, and using G.729, you could do 300 simultaneous calls with about 3 mbps. _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- Asterisk-Users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
