[c-nsp] 7513 T3 Card Question

[Paul Stewart]

Hi folks...

We're looking at an application whereby providing T1 services out to
customers... since we have a spare 7513 chassis kicking around it makes
sense to use it....

One concept is to put a pair of PA-T3+ cards into the chassis and connect
the T3's into a Telco Systems DS3 MUX - we're looking at 40-50 full rate T1
customers some of which will be load balanced as well.....

First question, will this work?  Second question, the 7513 only has VIP2-50
cards in it and I read some Cisco docs that state minimum RSP7000 series
processors and ours have RSP5000 series....

Looking for real-world feedback... other option is to just use 8 port T1
cards (PA-MC-8T1) which seems like a safer bet at this point....

Thanks in advance,

Paul
