There are many kinds of channel banks. There are ones that are fairly dense meant to terminate a T1 at the customer site. There is also less dense devices that seem to be meant for the Telco where it will keep one misconfigured or shorted line from taking out more than one line at a time. Digium has ties to Adtran. I like Carrier Access and have one of their Adit 600s in my home. While the Zhone Zplex devices work, there have been some stability and support issues with them. There is many more names than this, but these I have atleast some knowledge of. -- Steven Critchfield <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
