hi folks.

i'm planning to connect * to 120 POTS line. i've done some research
on FXO cards but unfortunately most manufacturers only make 4 ports/card.
the most i've found is 12 ports. so do i have to get 10 of these cards
and setup 3 Asterisk servers (assuming each have 4 free PCI slots) link
them together with some insane dialplan? or is there an easier way?

any suggestions? comments? remarks? parameters?
thx.

Get a T1/E1 card. They come in 4 port (TE4xxP series) and 1 port (TE110P) flavors.
You then connect each of those ports to a 24 FXO port channel bank.

So, to do the math, get a 4-port card and a 1-port card taking up only 2 PCI slots.
You attach 5 24-port channel banks to them.
And no, you don't need to punch a gaping hole in your wall snaking 120 phone lines into your office.

I'm sure there are better scenarios than this.
I just scaled up a setup I have.

It might look like I'm doing nothing, but at the cellular level, I'm really quite busy.
