[Asterisk-Users] TE410P - How many can I have?

[Andrei (MPI)]

Matt,

I simply called Dell and a technician promised that the new PCI slots 
are backward compatible. When I got my brand new TDM400P (which is to my 
best knowledge a legacy 32bit PCI/33MHz) - it was detected by Server's 
BIOS as PCI/33Mhz and I was able to load zaptel driver and use it with 
Astersk (though you may check my other posting about some issues I had, 
hopefully fixed by now).

The other question would be - how many unique IRQ # (interrupts) 
available on your server. Digium cards are known to have problems when 
sharing interrupts. Maybe your server would be able to handle 4 Digium 
cards, you would have to try and see.

Sincerely,
Andrei
