There are many options for adding serial ports. I have used two port PCI
cards from SIIG that seemed to work fairly well, and I am currently working
with a more elaborate setup, a 16 port serial setup from Digi that also
seems to be doing well. IIRC, you can put two of these into a system for a
total of 32 serial ports. However, if you were to get much more than 16
ports for a fax server, you might want to look into one of the ISDN
solutions that have been mentioned on the list, look for references to
Eicon(sp?) Diva.
