[c-nsp] Cisco AS5400XM call limitations

Tue Nov 29 20:37:09 EST 2011

Hello,

 I'm looking at picking up a couple Cisco AS5400XMs with CT3 interfaces.  Reading the docs it looks like they only support 550 simultaneous Voice & Fax calls.  Is that true?  Any idea why Cisco didn't build a box that can handle the full 672 DS0s in a CT3?    They will primarily handle g711 calls, some modem NAS stuff and a bit of t.38

 I'm trying to avoid front ending this with a DACS to move the T1s around. 23 T1s per AS5400 seems pretty lame.

Thanks

-Matt
