This is incorrect. Nobody (including Digium) makes 'oversized' PCI cards, because there are no chassis in the world they would ever fit in. However, it is true that the TDM2400P is the maximum possible size of a PCI card, both full-length and full-height. In addition, it requires a standard hard-drive power connector (Molex) to supply 12V power if any FXS modules are used, which are often hard (or impossible) to find in a 1U or 2U rack-mount server. There are some available, though, and shortly Digium will have an external power solution available for the TDM400P and TDM2400P cards. _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
