Uh, nope. I've been unclear. It was a purely hypothetical situation. It could be a case of expansion, or a new system requiring more circuits than a single card supports. I think there's a gap. A channel bank tied into a T1 is kinda kludgy for such a small system. Technically sound, but kludgy. Any other system of that size wouldn't need all the integration gear. You'd just plug the lines in. I know, I know; this is Asterisk, and that means one has to be creative. Perhaps I already knew the answer before I asked the question . . . still, one can hope. > But again even a TDM401P is $133 on > Digium's site.

Is there a place to buy brand new Adit600's with 5+ FXOs and a T1 card for $800? (I've looked on eBay, but that's not a reliable supply chain, and I have yet to see such a price for new equipment). Seems to me one is looking at more like $2000. > Anyway I think he's got his recommendations :-) Sure do! Thanks. -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Anti-Virus.
