[asterisk-users] high capacity analog <-> sip gateway

[Jeff LaCoursiere]

Agree with 24 port being the max for a single device.  In that vein I 
just deployed a handful of Grandstream 24 port FXS devices that seem to 
be working well at a decent price point.  I don't normally recommend 
Grandstream for anything, and in the past we have only deployed 
Audiocodes for this kind of task, but the Grandstream was half the price...
