That's not absolutely true either. I haven't seen many, but of the ones I
have seen (Altigen in particular) they use NMS stuff as well.
NMS, Dialogic, Rhetorex and Pika all make pc-based switch boards.
Anything from 4 to 24 ports, as well as dual T1/E1 and even quad-T1/E1.
I've worked on a pc-based switch for an automated collect call system
using analog trunk and station boards as well as dual-E1 (yes, E1) cards.
It's pretty sweet what you can do with that stuff.
