Re: [Asterisk-Users] Small form factor system w/PCI slot
I've been using a Compaq Deskpro EN SFF. They're small, have 3 pci slots, and you can get them up to 1Ghz PIII w/ 512MB of ram on ebay for under $100. Great for testing. When you're done with it throw in a PCI-PCMCIA adapter and turn it into a wireless AP or throw in a network card. They make a great router. You can't beat the price. Corporations bought them by the hundreds and they're all coming off of corporate lease. A TDM400 fits just right. If you want an even smaller package the Compaq Deskpro EN ultra SFF has 2 full size pci slots. --Zach On Fri, 2006-06-09 at 09:34 +0200, Jens Vagelpohl wrote: On 9 Jun 2006, at 02:04, Leo Ann Boon wrote: Jens Vagelpohl wrote: Hi everyone, I'm trying to buy a small form-factor PC system for use with Asterisk and Hylafax in conjunction with a Eicon DIVA Server single-port ISDN card (needs full-size 5V PCI 2.2 slot, but PCI-X compatible).

It's a normal 5.5 V PCI slot, the card can also deal with PCI-X slots as the documentation claims. I'll take a look at Xorcom's offerings, thanks. jens ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- Asterisk-Users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

[Asterisk-Users] Small form factor system w/PCI slot
Hi everyone, I'm trying to buy a small form-factor PC system for use with Asterisk and Hylafax in conjunction with a Eicon DIVA Server single-port ISDN card (needs full-size 5V PCI 2.2 slot, but PCI-X compatible). Use is very light - at most a single call at any one time. If the Mac Mini had a PCI slot I'd try to use that one, but oh well ;) Would anyone have some brand names or sites where such systems can be found? I'm not really interested in building one from scratch, I'd rather buy a complete system and just stick the ISDN card in there. Thanks :) jens ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- Asterisk-Users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
