Not sure what the minimum requirements are, but I have 24month old
servers that are dual 4core Xeon E5405 with 8GB RAM. They wouldn't
find 120 calls taxing at all.

Load will depend what you're doing though - transcoding uses CPU, and
things like IVR, recording, voicemail, conferencing will involve far
more processing than just bridging a call.

I haven't used FreeSWITCH with TDM personally, but AFAIK any zaptel
compatible card will work with freetdm. That card appears to be zaptel
compatible.

Perhaps someone else can chime in to confirm?

Calls always use a codec... you just need to pick which is best.
You'll want to avoid using too much bandwidth so you can run over
2/2.5G networks. There's a few that would suit, including Speex, GSM,
G729. G729 would need a $10/channel license, the rest are free.
