Re: [Asterisk-Users] How many digium cards per server ?

2006-01-30 Thread [EMAIL PROTECTED]

hi

I know people in here use 4 boards, but I believe the only real 
limitation is the number of PCI slots in your computer.


Obviously, with 4x4xE1/T1 boards (480 B channels) you need a pretty fast 
monster to drag it around due to the way the zaptel/asterisk works. So 
the actual limit is probably mostly restricted to how fast your PC is. I 
know other telco engines easily drag 16 E1's, but I am not sure Asterisk 
can do that even without echo cancel? You have to test...

I'd say one of the things you will run into is the
number of interrupts coming at you with so many
cards.

Personally I recommend one card per box. The card
goes for $1800(I buy Sangoma with echo cancel)
while the computer goes for $800 (HP Proliant
145). So the computer is really the small expense
here and with one card per box I instead have
several boxes and thus better redundancy.
One card per box also guarantess I won't have any
interrupt problems and it's capable of
transcoding.

I recently tested a dual xeon64 3.2 with two sangoma A104 cards, and  
that could just handle the load. I beleive the digium cards will  
require about the same load, since it is mainly zaptel eating cpu...

In space, loud sounds, like explosions, are even louder because there  
is no air to get in the way.
