Asterisk PBX -- Re: best PRI gateway?

Yeah infact Redfone TDMoE devices are the perfect blend between a SIP GW and PCI Cards.

Most of the heavy DSP tasks are offloaded / shared with the device and hence single machine can reach far more concurrency on calls then in std Card based model.

I dont see why customers wont be happy when they get so much productivity out of the same box.

If any one need redfone devices with high availability and high performance, do connect with me off the list.

One of my clients is using the Redfone TMDoE devices with excellent
results. The installation has been in place for over a year. To (try
to) answer your specific questions:

Takes up to 4 PRIs.

Haven't faced any echo issues so far with up to 400 simultaneous calls
on a single box, load balanced over multiple Redfone/PSTN gateways.

You could get pricing from them.

Fairly straightforward. The scripts supplied by Redfone work for a
single device connected to a computer. We're connecting up to 6 devices
(6 x 4 x 30 = 720 lines), and have made our own set of scripts to handle
that.

As far as I know my client's blood pressure has remained stable over the
non-Redfone <=> Redfone transition :)
