[Asterisk-Users] Channelbanks

[David Carr]

For FXS only, I like the CAC Access Bank 1s just because of the price. You
can get 24 FXS ports for around $200 from ebay or resellers.

For FXO or FXS/FXO, I like the CAC Adit 600s. They support FXO callerID
(which the AB1s don't), have much better disconnect supervision than the
AB1s, and they have 3 8-port cards instead of 2 12-port cards. That way you
can do 8 FXO + 16 FXS or many other combinations. You can get 24 FXS ports
for $500 - $600 and then buy additional FXO cards for $200 each or FXS cards
for $75 each. One chassis actually supports 6 8-port cards with 2 T1s (48
channels). It also allows you to break out one T1 into some voice channels
and some data channels which is nice for smaller offices. It also is
configurable via telnet (ethernet) which I never cared about until I had it
and now I wouldn't go back.
