[asterisk-users] PSTN to SIP

[Bruce Komito]

If your requirements are simple and you only have a small number if E1s,
you can also use a Cisco 36xx with a T1/PRI card.  3600's have limited
capacity but we run 4 PRIs on a 3640 no problem and it's been very stable
for several years.  The nice thing about 3600's is they are almost free,
although the cards are not.
