connecting 2 BCM 50s together with a PtoP T1 1

[TnPhoneguy]

I want to connect 2 BCM 50s together with a point to point T1 what interface do i need at each end of the T1
Thanks

You need 1 DTI card on each bcm(PRI/T1 module) and MCDN keycode on both.

adtran make a good one. make sure it has a t1 interface

I forgot to tell you i already will be using a PRI module for the incoming Telco lines
Thanks

 

[gberger]

it doesn't matter, you could use one for the PRI and one for the T1.

Could i not use the ethernet port somehow. If i use 2 expansion modules for the PRI and T1 i won't have room for 28 telephones

 

[bluemr2]

if you want to use ethernet, you will need a router on both ends of the t1, and ip trunk licenses on both bcm's.

Thanks everyone I think bluemr2 has the best idea. I really didn't want to get into a BCM 450 at the main location to get extra card slots.
