Lots of questions....

[forcesho]

I own a MICS 4.1 using 6 fibre combo port and looking to get my 4.1 XC so I can add another 6 fibre combo ports. I have a T1 card in but no DID service yet.

I'm looking to get DIDs soon and just want to make sure that DID can be carry over T1 ?

I also have more than 48 users so using the 4port star flash won't work. I'm assuming I need to go NAM ? how hard is it to hook up a NAM voice mail ?

Is it hard to do any of these ? I'm not a super phone guy but I learn the system and looking for advice..

In CT area..

YES, you can run DID's over a T1. The NAM will is not that hard to setup. It has a fiber feed just like the other modules. A installation guide will be sent out with the product. Make sure the versions are correct for the MICS and NAM. “Reserve your right to think, for even to think wrongly is better than not to think at all”

How to Install a T1:

You must have either a Services Cartridge (slot 1) or a 6-port Combo card (slot 2) in order to provide clocking for the T-1. Only one of these is needed, even if you have two DTI cards.
The DTI card should go into Slot 4 first. If you have a second card it would go into Slot 3.
You must disable the card first, program the card for T1, then re-enable the card.

Actually the T1 card is already installed, we had T1 service before but not DID, out going DOD. Thanks for the info, I actually have 2 6port combo card, in 1 & 2 I think. I'll have to check

If they are two way DIDs as in the users can get DID calls and make calls out over the T-1 then that's where you would set up the Channels as E&M. That way you can get traffic both ways over the T
