if you're looking for a less expensive, cinch to configure channel bank, I would look at the Rhino Channel Bank (http:// www.channelbanks.com). I must admit that I work for them, but I guarantee Asterisk compatibility and good, personal technical support should you need it.

You can always go with like a mediatrix 1124 - 24-port FXS access device
configuration is a nightmare with these things they make you use the
horrible app that they make you install.  And you don't even get the
software free to be able to $2500 device that you just bought. Anyways I have 2 of these devices and am very un happy with them ended switching them
out with asterisk with a t1 and a channel bank and it works perfect.

Subject: Re: [Asterisk-Users] so many FXS ports :)

The idea is that the channel bank breaks a T1/E1/J1 in to channels.
There are newer channel type devices that are just gateways. I am sure there
are benefits of doing it each way.

That's what I'm confused about:
* two 4 port FXS cards
* one 24 port FXS channel bank
both, neither, and if both -- why do you need the dual digium cards?
shouldn't your channel bank just take MGCP or SIP or something?

What am I missing?

Shawn guessed correctly; "Most likely a channel bank with 24FXS."
We have 2 cards each with 4 ports.

      1   Zap/23-1
      2   Zap/12-1
      4   Zap/20-1

this is perhaps a silly question, but how do you have so many zaptel FXS's? do you have six TDM400 cards with four FXS's each? or what am
I missing?
