Max number of analog trunks?

[MrBob622]

What is the max number of analog trunks supported on the 406v2? I see that it will handle 2 4port cards in the unit and 6 16port expansion modules. This would give a total on 104 analog trunks. Is this correct?

Your math is correct but why in the world would someone want 104 ANALOG trunks????

That config would also leave you with a maximum of 10 extns (2 pot + 8 DS)
yes it is posible but it would not be a practical solution

if you realy need so much you can always build a scn
one IPO for the trunk and another one for phones

Or use IP phones......

yeah everyone forgot about that option. lol

SCN isn't practical.

On a 406, the maximum VCMs is 30 ports, so even if you had 100-some analog trunks, the SCN TIE to the other PBX would only allow 30 calls to pass at any given time. Also, since you can't currently have phones on a remote switch in a hunt group, the hunt groups would need to reside on the remote system and the calls MUST extend to the remote switch prior to being answered, thus needing a potential for 108 VCM ports, yet only 30. Now 4.0 will change that, but also I think the IP phone is a beter route to go.

Actually, a few PRIs is probably a better route to go. Oh, and a 412.

I agree that 104 Trunks is crazy. Actually anything over 12 is a waste becuase PRI can do everything and more for about the same price as 12 Trunks.
