[asterisk-biz] SIP to PSTN Hardware

[Arya]

Thank you for that great explanation Jal

So I would have to use Digital PSTN lines for large installations right? I
have to see if Digital is available in the area. If I would have to use 2
Asterisk boxes would I need 2 digital PSTN lines?

That can also be done based on load or based on number of calls. The complete system is scalable. Rule of thumb is 100 simultaneous calls per asterisk. So if you need 200 simultaneous channels then 2 asterisk server if need 500 channels then 5 asterisk boxes. Since every thing is coming from database its easy to add more asterisk or ser servers. Distributing load on ser will involve the companies who are sending traffic to you.
