“PC + Card” versus Appliance

“PC + Cards” versus Appliance

Component churn – every 9 (?) months results in increased procurement /integration/testing costs

Purpose built, stable telephony platform

Greater integration effort (cards & drivers, choosing components and building PC)

Integration done by PIKA(expansion modules, Linux/Asterisk/FreePBX)

Stigma: PC not as reliable as a proprietary PBX

Purpose built for telephony, solid state, more reliable

Large in size – greater power requirements

Small in size – low power requirements
