[VoiceOps] Hardware transcoding solutions?

[Brooks Bridges]

As my initial email said, we've been looking at the NetBorder box from you guys, but I want to see what other options (if any) are out there.  Our current solution isn't very conducive to growth.

In our experience.
The number of software trasncoding sessions on a decent size box (quad core xeon) is about 300 to 500 sessions.
G729 to G711 RTP : Either SIP to SIP or SIP to TDM.

If you need to transcode 5000 channels I would be looking at hw solution.
You can go with SW solution but the cost of sw licences and servers and rack space becomes prohibitive.

Assuming this is SIP/RTP application, you could look at major SBC vendors, including Sangoma Technologies.
You can transcode 5000 sessions in as little as 2x1U SBC appliances that support HW trans-coding.

One can easily transcode 5000 729<->711 channels in software on a generic 1U server. Have you even tried?
