I don't think SER and SEMS supports any directly attached PRI cards. It is a SIP Proxy registrar, designed to deal with gateways (and Asterisk could be a gateway).
SEMS can act as an ISDN gateway, it supports directly attached PRI cards (Eicon Diva as en example).
However, I don't think that Asterisk makes a very cheap gateway. Once you factor in the cost of the card, the G.729 codec license, and a fast enough computer to do the coding (since the T1 card does not contain any DSPs), it doesn't seem so cheap anymore. And you'll end up with a gateway which doesn't support VAD/CNG or G.723 either. A used Cisco 2621 with a HDV card starts to look good. You get dedicated DSPs for coding, and support for a variety of different CODECs. Plus working VAD/CNG.
