It's not Asterisk, but I've done clusters of 6 telephony machines each with 4 IBM DTXA cards, each card with 4 T1s, giving 23 * 4 * 4 * 6 = 2208 channels per cluster. The machines connected to a shared (and highly redundant) database and file store. The machines were IBM pSeries p630s and p660s, and the software was IBM Websphere Voice Response.

If you design your system properly, you can do a similar thing with Asterisk on a smaller scale. Use one quad PRI card per telephony machine, talking to a shared database. The telephony part is pretty much infinitely scalable; the limiting factor is how big a database server you can build.

What is the largest PRI (T1/E1) count per machine that anyone has run successfully?

For example: has anyone done Two or more Quad cards (G711) on a single
machine?  (192-240 ports channels)

And is there anyone using DS3 and a DS3->DS1 channel bank with Asterisk?
