Title: RE: [Asterisk-Users] 8 lines - best approach

Two Voicetronix Openline 4 port FXO cards would do the trick.  They run about $550 each.   John ----- Original Message ----- From: Kostur, Andre To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Sent: Friday, January 23, 2004 10:40 AM Subject: RE: [Asterisk-Users] 8 lines - best approach One solution that we're investigating is using a gateway product instead of a channel bank. There's a couple to choose from...take a look at http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-VoIP+Gateways Sounds like you want one of the FXO devices.   We haven't actually purchased ours yet, but we're looking into buying one of the Vegastream 50 Analog units.  10 incoming FXO ports.  Saves us the cost of a proper channel bank, and a T1 card for the * server. I'm not recommending them specifically (just an example... you may be able to get better prices from other resellers....), but Atacomm (http://www.atacomm.com) lists the price of a Vega 50 FXO at $2350, a Multitech MVP810 at $2999, AudioCodes MP108 FXO at $1429.
