This was actually very helpful! Have there been any problems or
complications you have experienced with them? So far, they look great
and seem to get favorable reviews. Any additional info you think might
be useful to me would be great.<br>
<br>
Thanks for the idea...right now, it looks like this might be exactly
what we need.<br>

FYI, I've used Voicepulse Connect which is a VOIP provider so no
hardware is actually needed. They give you 4 lines by default for 11$
a month per phone number plus long distance charges for outgoing calls
at something around .0002 to .0008 cents a minutes. I've had good
success with them and they are not only very Asterisk friendly they
even have a built in script in Trixbox to set them up.
<br>
<br>
My box was very similar in configuration and I was hovering around 1%
utilization most of the time. But I can't help with the specific cards
as again, I used that VOIP provider.

regarding Asterisk hardware. A small company I work for is looking to
implement an Asterisk server to allow us to work off-site, yet still be
reachable. We would like to have 4 lines that forward over to mobile
phones if they are not answered.

I am looking for some hardware recommendations, and possibly common
pitfalls we might encounter attempting this setup.
<br>
<br>
The machine will not likely be dedicated to Asterisk. Specs are:
<br>
<br>
* CPU: Athlon64 3000+
<br>
* Memory: 1GB
<br>
* MoBo: Asus K8N
<br>
<br>
We have been looking at the Digium TDM-400, and the Sangoma A200. Are
there any recommendations as to which of these would be preferred and
why? Additionally, if you would recommend other hardware, we are open
to suggestions.
<br>
<br>
Any help is greatly appreciated and I can provide more info if needed.
Thanks all!
