Assuming US, since your email address has a state in the domain. There are other options for EURO ISDN countries. 8 is a lot for POTS lines, if your Telco can give you a fractional T1 for the same or a little bit more, you will be much better off, digital call handling, one T100P card ($595?) instead of 8 X100Ps ($792?). > And is X100P the only card available?

Voicetronix Openline4 + Openswitch6/12 have Asterisk channel drivers (chan_vpb), don't know what features are missing. Various hardware boxes handle FXO->SIP (Mediatrix?) > I'm trying to avoid irq conflicts as well as have a superstable box. The advantage of digital over POTS is that Asterisk is signalled when events happen (remote end pickup/hangup busy/ringing) rather than trying to work it out from tones/pulses, which is what humans have to do (and are a lot better at it).
