Mike,
I'm sure you could use a 26xx to do what you want. Just yesterday I put
this system into place:
Cisco 3640 (you could easily use 3620 as well)
1 - Dual-Channelized T1 with CSU module
2 - Digital Modem module with 24 modems each
We run two ISDN-PRI connections to the T1 controllers, and can handle any
combination of calls up to 46 single channel ISDN-BRI, 23 dual channel
ISDN-BRI or 46 analog modem calls. (i.e. we have 46 lines coming in on the
two PRIs)
We also use DialOutIP software to allow people to place modem calls from
their desktop PCs over the IP LAN. Works like a charm!
For your setup you could use either a 2 module 2600 or 3600. Get a single
T1 controller (with built-in CSU is nice) module and get a single ISDN-PRI
line to connect to it. As your second module, get the digital modem module,
and outfit it with 24 modems (can have from 6 to 30 in increments of 6). At
that point you can handle up to 23 incoming/outgoing calls at once, either
analog or ISDN (for flexibility). That coupled with DialOutIP sounds like
the perfect solution to your situation. =)
We're running Radius for authentication, as some people call in to get
IP/IPX services and some people call in simply to redirected to a telnet
session with a specific box on the network (and we network admins dial in to
gain access to the router itself). So don't forget you need a AAA component
as well.
Here are the parts you could use: (careful of wrap in the following URLs)
Cisco 3620 router with:
Digital Modem Module
http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/pcat/dimdnep1.htm
and
Channelized T1 PRI module (NM-1CT1-CSU)
http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/pcat/cht1isp1.htm
OR you could use:
Cisco 26xx router (choose which you want) with:
Serial WAN interface WIC (WIC-1T) with external CSU
http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/pcat/sewn__y2.htm
and
Digital Modem Module
http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/pcat/dimdnep1.htm
Now don't quote me on the 2600 setup, as I'm speculating this is what you
would need...... You can check out the following page for more options for
the WIC slots on the 2600:
