[asterisk-users] help with picking out a digium card.

[David Backeberg]

Some rack-mount servers I've encountered have an option to have the
older-style PCI slots available in at least some slots. If you're
really just using four FXS/FXO ports, it's unlikely you need very much
horsepower, and you could use an older system for the foreseeable
future.

If you really need FXS/FXO, but want new non-PCI hardware, you might
be better off considering an asterisk appliance that would convert
FXS/FXO to SIP and let your new gear do the SIP, or just configure
asterisk directly on that appliance. You would probably save power
consumption versus a new server or even the old server currently in
use.
