I really don't approve of other than for testing, but I have a customer demanding a generic chipset for his one backup analog line. He will not spend the money for a Digium card and says he will find another company if I can not provide a generic FXO port.
Is that really the kind of customer you want? One who is prepared to risk system stability for a few dollars? I would say that if something breaks, he will be the same type of customer who wants you to fix it for free...
I'll give him the benefit of the doubt and assume that maybe he's 10 years old and has saved his pocket money - after all, who wouldn't want to help a poor 10 year old just getting into Linux and VoIP?
Seeing as Digium no longer sells the X100P cards (of which you are hoping to buy a clone), I guess it's all right to use their bandwidth for this...
Yes, you can buy a clone. Yes, it may work currently (although I wouldn't want to guess for how long). Also, the actual cards that the X100Ps are based on have stopped being produced by Intel, so you're out of luck as far as a replacement goes in 6 months time.
Don't forget that the impedance on the X100P (or clone) is 600Ohms so you won't be able to use it without echo outside of the United States.
Really I'd recommend getting a TDM400P card or some older customers.
