[asterisk-users] Question about PCI Slots for DIGIUMs Boards

[Steve Totaro]

Are you looking to purchase a server or just looking for a card for an
existing server?

Either way, post the specs from the manufacturer (and also make sure
those slots are open)

You will get your answer pretty quickly, and much less painfully this way.

Thanks,
Steve Totaro
