If you're interested in the ALIX type boards, there is a reseller in 
Australia that offers a rack-mount option.  It's designed to house two 
of the boards, though it's not compulsorary.  See 
http://www.yawarra.com.au.  The products that would probably be of 
interest would be 
http://www.yawarra.com.au/product.php?productCode=HW-NT48-R and 
http://www.yawarra.com.au/product.php?productCode=HW-AX22-R.

Most Asterisk users would be more interested in the first option I'm 
guessing.  It's not the ALIX board - it's the net5501.  The reason it 
would most likely be of more interest is that it has a PCI slot 
available to it.

I'll add that I'm not affiliated with Yawarra in any way other than 
having been a satisfied customer in the past.  I must also add that 
whilst I've got an ALIX box myself, I /haven't/ used it as an Asterisk 
server - mine is a router.
