The Rhino Ceros provides reliable, flexible, and leading-edge solutions for a demanding telecommunications industry, including the Asterisk* community.

Rhino Ceros Chassis with 80GB Hard Drive (plus additional 80GB HDD in RAID1) for Rhino PCI Cards (CEROS-80GB-ST) with Intel Core2 Duo Processor (Intel DG33 motherboard) & 1GB RAM, Preloaded with trixbox CE 2.4

Managing your open source telecommunication needs has never been easier than with Rhino products. Ceros provides instant credibility to your Value Added Reseller (VAR) product line, by providing an unmarked PC chassis that is simply customized by editing a simple six line by 40 character text file, plus your company graphical logo in .BMP format. The graphic and text in the file is displayed on the LDD at all times for your customers to visually identify your own branded PBX product.

Knowing that Rhino products are ready to perform right out of the box means that you can spend more time developing important customer relationships. Ceros comes preloaded with Liniux and Asterisk, along with all the necessary configurations for the specific installed Rhino hardware. All that is needed is to customize extensions and other outside system environment configurations.

The Ceros chassis was designed with VARs in mind. The chassis comes with no external markings or silk screening, and comes shipped in two cartons -- an outside carton that can be discarded so that a pristine, inside carton can be cleanly shipped to your end customer.
