RE: [Asterisk-Users] Dell PowerEdge SC420 for Office Implementation???
It will perform OK most days, but nothing on it is redundant and you will need to be either careful (spare parts stocks, failover servers, etc.) or lucky to avoid a day or two of downtime each year.

I was wondering how the Dell SC420 will perform under normal office to office communications. We would equip each server with a T1 card to make office to office SIP calls. They will integrate into our existing PBX systems.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Dell PowerEdge SC420 for Office Implementation???
Well, if you are only making office to office calls, save the $500 per T1 card and just use NICs. The T1 card is only required if you are using a voice T1. If you are doing IAX to IAX for example between offices, then Asterisk is your friend. Avoid SIP altogether as it is not needed and just use IAX bwteen the boxes.

They work just fine. I have a few of them out at customers and there working without any issues. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Geoff Manning Sent: Friday, May 20, 2005 3:01 PM To: Asterisk Users (E-mail) Subject: [Asterisk-Users] Dell PowerEdge SC420 for Office Implementation???

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Dell PowerEdge SC420 for Office Implementation???
Those individuals that are responding to the OP should probably note what type of digium cards they are working fine with. One of the obvious issues is the T1 card vs TDM card, since the TDM seems to be far more critical then any other digium card. They work just fine.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Dell PowerEdge SC420 for Office Implementation???
Yep. T1 card to interface to the old PBX will work. I thought you were saying you wanted a T1 card to get yoru calls between offices. That of course will bemost likelyu accomplished via IAX (across a VPN channel works well) pver the internet. If your PBX is included on the Wiki, you should see lots fo good info there.

Am I on the wrong track here? Yes you do need the TE110p to connect the T1 part. I just wanted to add a few things about the SC420 I have been using. First I am had to use the 2 lower PCI channels the ones away from the AGP card. This way they don't share an IRQ with the Nic card. The TE110p works great but again you need to use the 2 lower PCI slots so that your assigned it's own IRQ. Other then that it works great. Love the server. ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
