I have a Option 61C and have been requested to supply one hundred phones that will ring at the same time by calling one extension number. I know I can probably hookup 100 separate ports but that will kill my available card slots. Will the ring generator support 100 ports ringing at the same time?
 
As I recall, you can have up to 5 analog sets if that is what you are refering to. Six sets is pushing it. You have to consider the ringing equivalency of each set versus the ammount supplied per ringing generator. You stand to burn it out if you hook up 100 sets. Try using 20 groups of 5 sets, it will use 20 ports which is better than the full 100.
 
I would also use sets with the electronic warbel ringer. The old bell style ringers really use up the voltage. Good Luck!!
 
You are limited to 30 TNs with the same number. If you are setting up a telethon type application, Try using ACD. be sure to check your available agent IDs.
