Abilis VMX supports multi-core CPUs: one core is dedicated to Abilis and the remaining for virtual machines managed by a modified version of XEN. There's no performance degradation because both router and Hypervisor can access to not simulated hardware resources.

Abilis VMX is an expandable device. Below there are the hardware characteristics of the base unit:

CPU QUAD Core Duo 3GHz;
2048 MB RAM DDR3;
2 Compact-Flash 512MB modules for boot;
PC platform with 3 PCI and 3 PCI-Express;
2 RS-232 ports;
Hardware Watchdog processor;
1 Gigabit Ethernet;
10 USB ports;
3 Power out connector useful to supply UMTS BOX2 or POTSBOX.

These are the expansions:

up to 12 ISDN2 or ISDN30 ports. Refer to the following chapters: Section 2.9.2, “QPRIX”, Section 2.9.4, “PB44X”, Section 2.9.7, “BRI-HFC4 / BRI-HFC8”, Section 2.9.3, “PB22”.
up to 48 analogue extensions (for “internal” telephones or fax). Refer to the following chapter: Section 2.9.8, “POTS 4/8/16”.
up to 384 analogue extensions (for “internal” telephones or fax). Refer to the following chapter: Section 2.9.11, “POTSHUB”.
