System Capacities
The system can support up to 80 line/trunk jacks, 72 of which can actually be
B-channels supplied on 100D modules or 800 NI-BRI modules (Release 4.0 and
later systems).
The maximum number of extensions depends on the type of equipment included
in the system. In theory, you can connect as many as 255 extensions, but this, in
fact, is not practical. In Release 4.0 and later systems, a higher-capacity tip/ring
(T/R) extension module, the 016, allows the system to support as many as 200
T/R devices such as single-line telephones, modems, and fax machines. The
number of extensions you can connect depends on the equipment you are using
in your system.
Appendix C describes hardware and software capacities, that is, the minimums
and maximums for certain features.
If you have any questions about your system's capacity, contact your Lucent
Technologies representative.
