A channel bank must connect via a T1 by definition, which would then give you 24 phone lines per T1. This would require 5 T1 connected to your asterisk server. OK 4 if E1 as it probably is in your case. However with your requirement for SIP you are looking for a gateway to connect your phones. Most are 24 port, though some are 48 port. Names to look at would be Carrier Access, Audiocodes, Vega etc. I do like the Vega unit except for their support - or lack thereof - here in the US. They do have both 24 and 48 port units. Your other option would be to do GR303 which would allow you to hang many lines off a few T1/E1 circuits, except it is definately not SIP. If phones are not at location of your asterisk server and you really want to do sip, it may be simpler for this many phones to install an additional asterisk server at the remote location and install a quad port T1/E1 card and hang channel banks off it.

Well, and it's probably worth pointing out that if you wanted to go the GR.303 route, the devices on both ends -- and especially the service provider side -- is unlikely to be so inexpensive and simple as a mere Asterisk server. You'd need some sort of DLC capable of doing GR.303, and, well, I don't know what supports GR.303 subscriber interfaces on the service side other than a bona fide Class 5 switch of some sort. :-) -- Alex Balashov Evariste Systems Web: http://www.evaristesys.com/ Tel: +1-678-954-0670 Direct : +1-678-954-0671 ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com-- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
