PCI ISDN30 Card Recommendations
Need to purchase a new ISDN30 Card, not too keen on the eicon diva range, but the current one is an old one..
Any recommendations.. I Ideally aslo need to be able to install say 5 analog modem drivers that will use the isdn card, or Find a multiport (say 8) modems on one pci card. Cheers David |
Multitech do a MultiModem ISI which has 8 56k modems on a single PCI board:
http://www.multitech.com/PRODUCTS/Fa...MultiModemISI/ Digi do something similar: http://www.digi.com/products/multimo...trasfamily.jsp I looked at Dialogic ISDN 30 boards in the past. They are part of Intel now: http://www.intel.com/design/network/...naling.htm#dti |
fook me not cheap..
Need to wake up before I read that intel site.. or just get our telephony team to look at it :D |
Aye, they can dent the wallet. But then a fully loaded Diva-30 is the thick-end of five grand.
|
I used Digi boards myself in the past; never had any problems with them.

But then a fully loaded Diva-30 is the thick-end of five grand. Fook that then, I might just try and pinch the old one and configure it quick! :o |
Nope. A v2.0 card is a couple of hundered cheaper than v3.0, but with 30 channels active I wouldn't expect change out of £5000 (ex VAT).
With 8 channels active you're looking at £2600ish + VAT |
jesus christ, im 99% sure I threw about 10 of these away when I decommisioned some of our IVR servers (You know press 1 for account queries, 2 to check your bill etc)
oops. :D David |
Hmm, I have some old PCI 6 or 8 port Modem cards, they are old but they did work...
Is it for fax server? PM me with a figure you might want to pay for it... ;) I have Keyspan Serial 6 and 4 port PCI cards and a Megawolf 8 channel card (somewhere) Harmonix/Eicon/Hermstadt are some names who used to do iSDN cards. I used to work for 4-Sight who were a player in the ISDN arena (and fax server) but mainly Mac based... |
Its for work so I dont want to pay any money at all.. they probably wont either.
Looking at the current eicon card I can configure it to run a few modems or a modem pool. But Im guessing I need to reconfigure it as a fractional e1/t1 line - having said that If I do that It seems to drop to 8 lines rather than 30.. Pass me the arm bands sinking quick and cant really piss about on a live system ;) The server is currently used for dial in / out.. I want to ditch the server for dial in a stick with vpn / csg but they arent too keen just yet. The server also has some modem sharing software which shares out the 5 internal modems for some noddy financial applications. We have bought a new server for dial out (ML350 G4) which someone spec'd really well as it has 1 net card, no raid.. and not too many pci slots.. So the problem is once it has the raid card and another network card, Im going to be left with about two pci slots to fit an ISDN30 card and 5 pci modems.. so was wanting to drop some channels off the isdn 30, install modem drivers bound to the channels and share these - meaning that I dont have to fit 5 pci modems into 1 slot.. :argh: David |
