It is possible but not recommended to put more then 2 x100p's in a box. I
have a system with a TDM400 and 4 X100p's.

Key is to get a motherbrd that lets you assign IRQ resources since you
do not want the above cards to share IRQ's (That said the TDM and an X100
do share an IRQ without a problem but this is a 2.4GHZ machine)


Using more then one box is best.

As for the FXO modules I have passed out many many times holding my
breath! :)
