[asterisk-biz] SIP to 24 FXS

[Steve Totaro]

Cheapest almost never the best.  I would not trust any business 
application to "an old ad tran".  I want something under warranty with a 
number to dial for tech support.  The Quintum Tenor AX has worked great 
for me and comes with a two year warranty.  It is not much more 
expensive than buying a T1 card and "an old ad tran".

Although I have never had a need for MWI, I am quite sure the Quintum 
could do it.

I love Adtran to death and use one to MUX my DS3 but Quintum is the 
route I chose for FXS and have not had ANY problems besides the initial 
learning curve.  Java based GUI setup, G729, IVR, CDR, Peering, 2 year 
warranty, too many features to mention.

I am sure you can shop around and find it cheaper than *$1,828.00


*Thanks,
