Re: [asterisk-users] E3 Card on Asterisk ?

2010-04-28 Thread Motiejus Jakštys
Here is a starting point:
http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+dimensioning

Not really what you need, but still. When you figure out something -
add here :-)


 Has anyone put together a public list/wiki/info sheet on what the
 various maximums/rules of thumb are?  Seems a better idea than random
 searching to point to a definitive document!  And save some traffic to
 the list as this seems to be a common query.

[asterisk-users] E3 Card on Asterisk ?

2010-04-27 Thread Anita Hall
Hi

Please check out this product

http://www.sangoma.com/products/hardware_products/data_networking/a301.html

Does it work on Asterisk or Freeswitch ?
Do Telcos provide an E3 connection ?

One of our customers had an inquiry for terminating 6000 calls
simultaneously. I want to do some homework before taking it further with
him. If I use E1 lines, I will need 6000 / 30 = 200 E1 lines, which does not
look feasible ?

Thanks for any input you may provide.

regards,

Anita Hall,
Simmortel Voice.

On ONE box?

Seems to me, that is just asking for trouble
Check the archives, others have suggested maximums for a single box and 
server farms

Putting that many calls on one system is not a good idea... you'll want to 
spread those calls over multiple machines with some sort of redundancy or 
failover. 

Also, the card you reference is for clear channel data only, not voice. 
However, you may want to give Sangoma a call. They are top notch when it comes 
to custom solutions and have some of the brightest people on staff. 

In my research into T3/E3 connectivity, I've found it's generally best to go 
with some sort of a MUX that will take your T3/E3 and break it down into 
individual T1/E1 circuits. If I recall, Adtran makes a few nice units for this.

That card only operates as an E3 or T3 data card. It is not channelised 
to work as a PSTN voice card. So, no, it doesn't work with Asterisk or 
Freeswitch - unless you are looking for IP connecion for VoIP.

Sangoma used to talk about producing a channelised revision of the card, 
but it looks like the potential sales have never looked promising enough 
to make it happen.

Digium used to have an E3/T3 card on their web site, but I assume they 
canned it. You don't hear anything about it now.
