Did you say ISDN *Primary* Rate Interface (PRI), the big expensive one
that carries 23 (in North America) or 30 (in Europe) B channels, NOT
the 2B+D Basic Rate Interface (BRI)? So it's basically a channelised
T1/E1 card, right? Do you know if it can do E1 or just T1? If it
can do E1, my friend Stacy Minkin in Uzbekistan was looking for a PCI
channelised E1 card and probably still is. It isn't ISDN, though,
just a channelised E1. He wants to connect an E1 line from their old
municipal telephone switch (classic traditional telephony, pre-ISDN,
pre-other modern innovations) to an Asterisk Linux-based VoIP gateway.
