[Asterisk-Users] CPU power required - Asterisk

[Scott Stingel]

Hi Jeremy-

Assume that you mean 2 of the Quad-span boards, ie:  8 E1's?  I was
wondering about the speed of the processor required to keep up with all
channels at once.

Yes, I agree about redundancy, just checking the limits..

Thanks
Scott
