How many concurrent calls can asterisk support

Hi,

am newbie to Asterisk,

am planning to install Asterisk on uClinux, and blackfin board

i want to know how many concurrent calls can asterisk supports,
i read some where that the number of concurrent calls depend up on so many factors.

for say if i have 1000 concurrent calls,then what type of configuration i need to use.

Regards

It’s more what the bored can hold and what you are doing with the call. I have never worked with a blackfin so I could not comment on it. You may want to look here:

Here is some one that now mass produces them:

When I emailed him about the blackfin he was very helpful.
