Looks like an expensive way to do it - if power consumption is your issue why not just go for one of the off the shelf asterisk appliance solutions that are out there.
...of course this is my cue to recommend the Vdex-40 (http://www.taa.com/products-vdex-40.html) but seriously what advantages are you getting over any of the asterisk appliances.

If you're interested in the ALIX type boards, there is a reseller in Australia that offers a rack-mount option. It's designed to house two of the boards, though it's not compulsorary. See http://www.yawarra.com.au. The products that would probably be of interest would be http://www.yawarra.com.au/product.php?productCode=HW-NT48-R and http://www.yawarra.com.au/product.php?productCode=HW-AX22-R. Most Asterisk users would be more interested in the first option I'm guessing. It's not the ALIX board - it's the net5501. The reason it would most likely be of more interest is that it has a PCI slot available to it. I'll add that I'm not affiliated with Yawarra in any way other than having been a satisfied customer in the past. I must also add that whilst I've got an ALIX box myself, I /haven't/ used it as an Asterisk server - mine is a router. _______________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- AstriCon 2008 - September 22 - 25 Phoenix, Arizona Register Now: http://www.astricon.net asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users _______________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- AstriCon 2008 - September 22 - 25 Phoenix, Arizona Register Now: http://www.astricon.net asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
