Initially, I believed that the limitation was the PCI bus, but I was mistaken. There is a lot of confusion surrounding this issue, and it would be great if someone stepped forward with a concrete answer. That said, here's what I've learned about the issue through my research. We started off

From what I understand (and this could be completely wrong), the Digium cards use a bunch of processor interrupts and too many cards will use up all the interrupts. (again, that could be completely wrong). What kind of calls are they? G711-PRI? Not much CPU needed there. G729 - PRI? Yes, you
