Help with Media Resources for TDM-IP Trunks

[mdarnell]

Aloha,

We have a customer that is looking to centralize their dialtone with centralized PRI trunks.

They would like to have a this type of call flow:
PRI <-> BCM 400 <-> IP Trunk <-> BCM 400 <-> M7208

Do they need one Media gateway at each BCM? Based on the BCM Monitor they appear to have four media gateways.

Can you add more media gateways with PEC III cards?

Thanks for the help!

Aloha,
Matt

Just need IP trunk licenses on both systems. Assuming mostly digital sets and not a huge amount of IP trunks, you'll be fine with the two PEC 3s on each system.

Thanks for the response!

Is there a way to gauge IP trunk capability?

There are 2 IP trunks on each BCM and over 120 TDM phones.

Thanks,
Matt
