[Asterisk-Users] Asterisk Hardware recomendation

[Krystian Filiks]

What about plain g729?
My main concern is the Hardware, anyone that can tell me if this
Supermicro 6014H-32 is stable and sutible for asterisk?

Yes,

transcoding is not going to work for that density.
asterisk doesn't do g723, and even if it would your system would not be 
able to handle more than 150 simultaneous g711 to g729/g723
transcodings.

If you would go for plain g711, you could do 500, but i don't recommend 
it, especially if you have little asterisk experience. (i'd say go for a

cluster).
