It certainly does!

If the need for a connector isn't a killer, the Sangoma A200 is a much 
better choice.
They have a 5 year warranty
The will work with any modern motherboard
They have good/great support. If it doesn't work, they will NOT tell you 
to try another motherboard
If by chance you need pulse dial, they have a different driver that may 
or may not be on the website.
Ask David in support for that.
If you have boards other than the A200, keep in mind that it takes up 24 
channels, used or not, so if, lets say, you have an X100 in addition ( 
don't know why you would ) and its driver is loaded second, it will be 
channel 25

Sangoma is the wise choice, in my opinion.
