Pete,

The PCI bus doesn't require more amperage (not voltage).  The additional 
power is supplied via a molex connector on the back of the card.

You CAN take up to 1 amp off the JP15 connector.  This should allow you 
to power up to 2 fxs channels without problem.

Here's a picture of one of my installations with all FXO modules.  Note 
that no additional power is required (because these are all FXO modules).
