Offloading? What exactly? A quad E1 (4 E1 cards, much more than is needed for the 64 lines mentioned in the topic) takes 8Mb of actual data per second, overheade not included. It doesn't take much horsepower: A decent single-CPU P4 server could easily handle the full capacity of that card, assuming that there are no other load factors such as conferences, compressions and such. However if you get a network segment into the picture, you now have to take into account not only your server and the other server, but also all the network infrastructure in between. E.g.: the switch(es), QoS, etc. -- Tzafrir Cohen sip:[EMAIL PROTECTED] icq#16849755 iax:[EMAIL PROTECTED] +972-50-7952406 jabber:[EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.xorcom.com _______________________________________________ --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
