System Requirements

Hardware Requirements

AltiServ hardware requirements depend on the number of extensions
(lines) and trunks your site requires. Refer to Table 4 on page 2-12 for
AltiServ platform selection.

System Key Requirement

AltiWare OE 4.6 is integrated with a system key, a hardware security
device that allows the software to run ONLY when that system key is

system key is required for initial installation, software upgrade process,
and upon system reboot.
One pre-assigned, DB-25 parallel port system key is included with every
copy of AltiWare OE 4.6 (upgrade or original). Each system key has a
unique key designated for a particular AltiWare software package - system
keys cannot be shared among systems. System keys are also available in
USB form factor. USB system keys must be special ordered.
