I've been using the Digium TE110P for more than a year now without any hitches in a mission critical environment. It's in a Dell Poweredge 750.
I had a problem compiling libpri at first and the digium help desk was more than helpful. I also had some echo issues, but those have mostly been resolved using the built in cancellation routines. -- Tom Hayden On 10/20/06, R.R. Libera <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Wow, this is a completely neutral and very valuable review. Thanks a lot Zoa. I´m an * newbie; my little box will only needs 20 extensions to give termination to remote users and I´m about to buy a PRI interface; I decide to get Sangoma hardware.. a lot of people recommended it to me. In you review you said: "The biggest choice you need to make is if you want onboard echo cancellation or not". How can I really know if I will need echo cancellation? I´m planning to get a single span card (which doesn´t include echo cancellation) but how can I know if I really need this feature?? Thanks in advance. R.R.
