RE: [Asterisk-Users] Newer Dell Servers + TDM card
There is a thread in dev or biz about this too. A guy got referred some motherboards by Digium he can't get easily in Australia. I'll second that the DL380 G2 seems to work, I'll know more in a few months. The common thread seems to be either a serverworks chipset or more specifically, a chipset optimized for PCI bandwidth - two or three separate PCI buses with a bus dedicated to the Digium card. I asked the following to Digium about the new Asterisk Business Edition Will there be a recommended hardware platform or reference system? Yes, two servers are being used for the initial certification, a Dell PowerEdge and a HP/Compaq.

I know I may be asking the obvious, but shouldn't we get tother to build a matrix (prehaps on the wiki) showing boards / servers that work against cards.

We're using the TDM400P (Not T1).. For everyone's information, we are successfully using a TDM400P card with a single FXO module in a Dell Poweredge 2550 running Slackware 10. I know you can't get those servers any more, but they do make modern day equivalents in the form of 2850s. The 2650 was the successor to the 2550, and the precursor to the 2850, but I've not tested either of these later models.
