Introduction

This chapter explains how to install and perform the initial configuration
of new IP Telephony nodes, Voice Gateway Media Cards (ITG-P 24-port,
Media Card line cards), and associated cables.
Before installing an IP Telephony node, see Converging the Data Network
with VoIP Fundamentals (NN43001-260) for information about IP network
engineering guidelines.
The maximum number of Voice Gateway Media Cards that can be installed in
each node is 30. When more than 30 Voice Gateway Media Cards are needed
on a single CS 1000 system, then multiple nodes must be used. The maximum
number of Signaling Servers and Voice Gateway Media Cards that can be
combined within a node is 35.
