[Asterisk-Users] Hard drive write cache

[Colin Anderson]

They have a 4 port switch, but not PoE. It's decommissioned but we haven't
taken it out of the rack yet, if I'll remember when we derack it I'll snap a
pic. 

AFAIC, there is nothing in them that cannot be duplicated in a decent
Asterisk setup, and in fact the featureset that we have fleshed out in our
Asterisk setup stands head and shoulders above the Mitel featureset with the
only exception of voice recognition, which is actually quite good (and
extremely expensive - the cost for the voice recognition as a single feature
is equivalent to the cost of our ENTIRE Asterisk rollout, including phones.)

Hmmmmm.....that's interesting to know.  I'll bet they boot from CF but I
could be wrong.  Any chance you can get some photo's of the inside of that
thing?

Those Mitels have a built in PoE switch do they not?  Anything else special
about them that cannot be duplicated in an Asterisk Server?  Not that a
couple 4 port PoE switches inside is not possible but I haven't heard of
anyone doing that.
