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...<br>

just talking in general terms here I have found this sort of
hardware is not the most reliable, and the more physical devices
you spread it across the more fault tolerant you are of a single
fault taking down a big chunk of your users.<br>
<br>
I wouldn't go more than a 24port device and for 100 users I
would get 5 or 6 of them depending on the exact numbers and have
one as a hot spare that can just be swapped in quickly if one of
the others dies.<br>
<br>
my analog stuff is all on spaxxxx or pap2t right now and I find
that working out better for me than T1 card and channel bank was
in the past, but the cabling is not as neat and tidy. Its a lot
easier pill to swallow when 2 extensions die than 24 for me.<br>
