[Asterisk-Users] I need suggestions for on equipment

[Cory Andrews]

You could use a Digium TDM2422B, which has 8FXS and 8FXO, and leaves you 
8 ports past that for future FXS or FXO expansion.  That card, with a 
normal Asterisk rackmount or tower server, and a mini patch panel and 
amphenol cable I would think would do the trick.

For phones, I would suggest the Linksys SPA-941 or something from 
Polycom or Snom.  Get yourself a decent APC, Tripplite or other battery 
backup unit as well.
