That sounds fine then. > > In theory Asterisk shouldn't have a lot of load.

When I asked a VAR about this they said it was a special order item that they never kept in stock. According to the Adtran web site the module is designed for "packetized voice applications." It sounds at though Asterisk wouldn't have to put cycles to echo cancellation with a module like this. I was also thinking that if I used more than one machine with TDMoE I could potentially have better performance. ...Jeff _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
