I've used the E1 trunk resiliency feature before and I understand how it works - I have two questions though and I imagine one would only be able to answer these from personal practical experience

1. I want to use the a 3300 to be both a primary and secondary for E1's. Has anyone tried this before? Basically I have two sites about 70 metres apart. Each site has E1 termination dp's. So each 3300 would have to act as the primary for its own dp but also back up for the 'far' dp by virtue of using combo cards. In theory this should work but I'm just wondering if anyone has done this before.

2. Documentation states that the primary and secondary should be no longer than 10 meters away from each other, basically cable distance. Anyone done this beyond this 10 meter limit before? I don't understand why there's a limit since the combo card is really just a hard relay

Thanks
