[asterisk-users] Half-height PCIe analog FXO card

[Eric Wieling]

Last time I checked (a few years ago) Sangoma has half height brackets available.  Contact their support or sales.

Subject: [asterisk-users] Half-height PCIe analog FXO card

Hi,
 
Does anyone do a low profile PCIe FXO card? I just picked up an HP ProLiant microserver for $nuppence, which I'd hoped to migrate my Asterisk setup onto. I currently use an A400P analog card, but the ProLiant only has PCIe slots, and they're short ones too, so I can't use an A400E card. Even the Sangoma cards, which seem to be low profile,  have full-height brackets on them - which, of course, won't fit in the box.
 
Is it just me, or is this whole half-height PCIe thing a complete b***ocks?
 
Any advice appreciated. I'd prefer not to have to spend mega$ on this, the server only cost $200, it seems silly to spend $1000 on a PCI to PCIe converter (Magma.com) to keep using a $100 card...
 
Cheers,
Ade.
