<br>
<font size=2 face=sans-serif><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:sans-serif'>I'm
looking to collect prices on new, entry-level channel banks purchased from
"retail" outlets. In other words, not eBay. I would
prefer channel banks that have gotten outstanding recommendations on the
various lists. This would include CAC or Adtran. From what I've
seen Zhone and Rhino . Is there something else I should add? Here's
what I've got so far, with typical prices for 24 x FXO:</span></font> <br>
<br>
<font size=2 face=sans-serif><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:sans-serif'>The
VoIP Connection (Rhino only: $2500)</span></font> <br>

<br>
<br>
<font size=2 face=sans-serif><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:sans-serif'>VoIP
Supply (CAC only: $1900)</span></font> <br>
<font size=2 face=sans-serif><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:sans-serif'>http://www.voipsupply.com/index.php?cPath=99_294</span></font>
<br>
<font size=2 face=sans-serif><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:sans-serif'>Note:
I see prices for the Access Bank I and II, but no mention of interface
cards</span></font> <br>
<br>
<font size=2 face=sans-serif><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:sans-serif'>Any
other companies I could add to my list? I've Google/Froogled, and I've
checked about a dozen other more generic suppliers from PC Connection to
ProVantage to CDW. They either don't have channel banks, or have channel
banks (like the Adtran Atlas 500 series) that start at about $5,000.</span></font>

<br>
<font size=2 face=sans-serif><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:sans-serif'>P.S.:
To me, reproducable business solutions cannot depend on eBay. However,
when you look at that prices, you understand why it's so attractive!</span></font>
