[asterisk-users] Hardware suggestions for 8-10 lines in the UK

[Ed W]

Hi

I have previously had good success on smaller installations with TDM400P 
cards.  I now have a UK customer looking for 8-10+ lines and it seems 
like a PRI would be most economical + reliable?

Has anyone here used PRI interfaces in the UK and can confirm that it 
works well (using Trixbox for preference?).  I have had some niggling 
issues with the TDM400P cards which puts me off adding lots of these in 
a single box.  Am I right in thinking that ISDN or PRI will be a better 
and more reliable option?

Any suggestions on 2U servers that should work well?  For example the 
DELL 2850 seem to lack any spare HD type power outlets which is 
irritating...

I also need two internal fax machines.  Can anyone confirm that the best 
solution is just some linksys ATA's at the fax end, then switching them 
directly down the PRI card?  Is there a better option to guarantee best 
quality?  It would be convenient not to have extra analogue lines in the 
building if we go down the PRI route...

Grateful for any thoughts

Ed W
