Ah yes, I can clearly see the power connector now on
http://www.digium.com/index.php?menu=wildcard_tdm400p2

I guess it makes sense that a card providing FXS ports would require
more than the standard amount of power.

I can't see any extra power connector on the illustrations of the
other Digium cards (X100P, T100P, E100P, TE405P, TE410P)
