Sangoma A400: 2 - 24 Port Expandable Analog Voice Cardon PCI-e
The A400 Series of analog voice cards deliver superior audio quality in a 2U card that expands from two to twenty-four ports using a single interface slot.
For optimum echo-cancelled voice quality and enhancement, choose the A400D Model with DSP Daughterboard Hardware Echo Canceller. One DSP echo canceller on the A400D Base Card will support Telco-grade hardware echo cancellation on all channels, up to the card's maximum configuration in 24 ports with no additional CPU load.
To reach this configuration, simply add additional Remora™ cards to any base card in the A400 Series. A single PCI or PCI Express slot hosts the connection and ensures common synchronous clocking for all channels.
Like all the cards in the award-winning Sangoma AFT Series Product Line, the A400 and Remora system's architecture is shared with Sangoma's A101, A102, A104, A108 and A200 cards, ensuring common 3.3 V or 5 V, high performance, universal PCI or PCI Express compatibility, and crash-proof field upgradable firmware to take advantage of enhancements, as they become available.

Architecture
-
The A400 consists of a Remora daughterboard mounted on the AFT PCI card. The Remora™ card has six sockets, each of which can accept a FXO-2 or FXS-2 module. Each FXO-2 or FXS-2 module supports two FXO or FXS lines, respectively.
-
Up to one additional Remora daughterboards can be mounted in empty slot positions beside the A400 assembly and connected to the A400 base card by a backplane bus connector.
-
Each 12-port A400 Remora card has a robust DB25 connection to an included standard 12-line, colour-coded telephone cable that is ready for hardwiring into a punch block at the PSTN connection.
