While this is too many "eggs" in one basket, but can be useful if you have "too many" E(T)1s say equivalent to a STM1 (OC3) or more. In that case, it would be too many boxes at 8ports / box.<div><br></div>
<div>Somewhere in the mailing list, Sangoma devs said that they do 32E(T)1 per box on the labs quite frequently, although mostly for load testing.</div><div><br></div><div>Can asterisk handle that much load (32 E1) on a box? We have seen asterisk crash quite frequently with 2 x 4 E1 load on one box (chan_ss7), especially when the calls per second is above 10.</div>

24 T1 ports, if my math is correct.<br>
Lots of "eggs" for any PC, desktop or not!<br>
Lots of circuits/channels to go South with one machine failure<br>
<br>
I would want to spread the load around<br>
But then, it isn't my problem!<br>
<br>
Perhaps Sangoma will give similar advice?<br>
