[asterisk-users] SIP trunk with 250 lines
Hi! A customer of mine wants to connect an asterisk system with 240 to 480 lines to a PSTN switch. To save the costs for E1 cards and the corresponding E1 mainlines he wants to connect the system to the switch by a SIP trunk. Phones will be connected to the server through the same SIP trunk as this will be some kind of a hosted pbx. Given he finds a provider wich has this much SIP capacity and IP bandwith and no codec conversion is needed - do you think this is possible with pure asterisk on a decent system? Is there anything I shoudl watch out for? Your help is much appreciated!

There is no problem with *Asterisk* and these NICs, in fact it's highly unlikely that Asterisk could ever have a problem with any NIC, since it is a userspace application. What you are referring to is an incompatibility with many E1000-based NICs and *some* Digium telephony interface cards (not all, and I don't know if other manufacturers cards are affected).
