[Asterisk-ss7] SS7 Information

The only thing SS7 does is signaling,  Obviously you'll need enough  
bearer channels to handle your voice traffic which occur on a  
completely different trunk group.  A single 56kbps SS7 A-link can  
easily handle thousands of call creations per second.

The Digium SS7 stack I was referring to was  LIBISUP  http://www.voip- 
info.org/wiki/index.php?page=Asterisk+ss7+LIBISUP

I haven't used it in the real world,  All of my SS7 with Verizon is  
handled by a Tekelec t7000 switch.

You may also want to look at Verisign,  They can provide SS7 links  
with national (USA) coverage and they have a product calls SIP-7  
which is their SS7 talking to your SIP server.
