[Asterisk-Users] Rack Mount Server Recommendations

[Michael B. Murdock]

While full NEBS certainly adds a great deal of expense and we do have some
customers insist on it, most are happy to just have -48vdc power. Currently
we use a high end commercial inverter which adds about $3000 to the system
cost. I would like to be able to do away with the inverter completely.
