We use a single Digium te410p (with 2 PRI's) in a Supermicro 1U. The "telco servers" do nothing but answer the incoming only calls, assign a global id to the call (which is passed in the CALLERID(name)), update a MySQL database to show the channel is in use, query the database to see if the ANI should be blocked, and IAX dial the application server for call processing (primarily conferencing). At the completion of the call the "telco server" updates the database to show the channel is available.

This all works fine but won't scale ($$$, rack space, cooling, cabling, administration, etc) to dozens of T1's.

Use multiple servers. What kind of calls are you handling that you can
have more than 3 quad T1 cards in a single server and have your
Asterisk-based application be functional? And what kind of server
hardware are you using?

When you get beyond a dozen T1's or so what have you done?

We've configured "t1 servers" with quad T1 cards which hand off calls to
"application servers" via IAX and this is working pretty good, but, where
do we go from here?

Talk about Digium's DS3 card appears to have evaporated.

What about a Tekelec or a Max TNT?

What have you used to get in the neighborhood of 1,000 simultaneous calls
into your Asterisk applications?

How much did your solution cost and what problems did you experience?

Did you drag a DS3 to your location or did you co-locate at the CO?

Inquiring minds want to know :)

Thanks in advance,
