    You can add a maximum of three DTMs to your Business Communications Manager system, and only on the BCM1000. Tip: The BCM1000 can hold three media bay modules. If you require more than three modules, a BCM1000e can be connected to support an additional six additional modules.
  • Page 88: Upgrading From An Existing Norstar System

    A special media bay module allows you to convert existing Norstar expansion modules from the Norstar ICS to full Business Communications Manager capability. The FEM allows you to connect a maximum of six Norstar expansion modules to a BCM1000. Each expansion module connection requires one DS30 bus, therefore, the BCM1000 used for this purpose can only support one FEM module (and no BCM1000e) if you are converting a fully-configured Norstar system.
