[Asterisk-Users] How to connect many analog lines to Asterisk?

[C F]

I don't know why Darren syas 3 Adits since each one can handle 48
FXO/FXS channels, so 2 make 96. Anyhow each Adit connects to 2 T1
ports on a TE405/6. With Adit 600 I don't see why TE406 is required
since I believe the Adit 600 will take care of the echo, I might be
wrong on this last one about the echo.
In any case, if what you want is FXS cards, then I would strongly
recommend to get Adit 600 with CMG cards, then you can get by with a
$400 PC for asterisk, since you don't need any digium cards for that,
because the CMG in the Adit will handle the main load of transcoding.
The one limitation is, that if you need faxing, or FXO ports then
don't go with the CMG. It might still be worthwhile to get a single
span T1 card from Digium, use an Adit to cross connect the FXS
cards/channels that are connected to fax machines to that T1, as well
as any FXO cards that need to go to asterisk.
