Hi all, Thanks for the input regarding T1 cards. I've was able to find some Sangoma 101c cards for sale on Ebay. It's up and running in a Soekris 5501.

Plus, you can't get spare parts readily, have to rely on Cisco getting patches out, etc.pp., and a Soekris + art(4) card as a CPE device is still smaller and much less power-consuming than a Cisco. -- Kind regards, --Toni++
