Your up front cost is going to be a little higher with TDM -> SIP
devices, but your management will be a lot easier.

AudioCodes also has equipment that can support a DS3 connection, or
multiple T1s directly to SIP.

For example, If you are getting 22 T1s then get two AudioCodes Mediant
2000s with 16 spans (maxed out) or two Mediant 3000s with 21 spans.
If you are getting a DS3, get a Mediant 3000.  The M3000 supports up
to 84 T1s or three DS3 or one OC3.

Then leave call management up to Asterisk.  Of course, have redundancy
everywhere you can.
