You can put as much cards in your machine as you have interrupts and IO-Ports (mostly for ISA-Cards). Years ago we had a machine with two Teles Cards, an ITK-IX1 Micro and two AVM-Fritz Cards running for PPP-dialin. The only problem we noticed was that after some time one of the cards did not respond to the ISDN bus until the Hisax for the card was reloaded. We used one HiSax for every card to adress this issue - but you can of course use one driver for all cards you install. The above mentioned problem may also be due to the PBX the cards were connected to. And about once in a month the machine was frozen - but well - this was at kernel 2.0.36 and friends and may have changed in the meantime. If you need four to sixteen B-Channel - either use active ISDN-Cards such as the AVM B1 or get a dedicated routerbox for that. If you have a PRI Interface get a used Lucent Portmaster PM-III. Theses machines are rock solid and they sell for about 250 Bucks at ebay - and they do up to 60 Linus and also serve Analog Modems. You can get further information at www.portmasters.com If you're stuck to BRI-Interfaces I'd look for a Cisco 2610 with an NM-4B or NM-8B. The Cisco solution should be the same price as active ISDN-Boards and the used portmaster is the same price as the four passive Cards. If you're looking for BRI there may be also solutions that sell cheaper - such as Bintec perhaps.
