Franklin Tempest DVG VoIP gateways?

Archived from groups: comp.dcom.voice-over-ip (More info?)

I have a rack of Franklin Tempest Data/Voice Gateway systems,
part number 707-018-24. Each one has two DSP cards, a network
card, and what I presume is a T1 interface card. Unfortunately,
the hard drives were wiped, and all software and documentation
is missing. (But other than that, they're in pristine condition.)

I don't have a lot of experience with VoIP hardware; anyone
familiar enough with these to know whether they're still worth
anything? Franklin Telecom's websites haven't provided any
useful information or documentation and I have no idea whether
it's possible to do anything with these without proprietary
software that I don't have. (There's a "management" unit as
well on the rack, also in the same wiped condition, so that's
no help either.)
