Really depends on where the resources are going to be used. you will need the transcoding resources at the UCCx site. That is where all the transcoding will be done. As for Conference resources, where ever it will be used. I'm guessing split. some at each site.<div>

<p class="MsoNormal">I am doing a redesign of an existing voice network. We
currently have two 3845’s. One 3845 has three MFT-2 port PRI’s.
Four of the PRI’s are used for inbound and outbound calls. One port on
the third MFT is used as a TIE line between a Nortel box. We also have the
other 3845 with two MFT-2 ports. Four of those PRI’s are used for inbound
and outbound calling. The TDM gateways are separated like this for business /
political purposes which I can get around if I need to and consolidate all of
the TDM cards into one 3845 by purchasing some Network Modules. The other
design problem is they are currently sending a substantial number of calls over
the WAN to the central UCCX servers as G.711. This is causing some network
congestion problems at their remote facilities. At any given time I would
estimate about 60 concurrent calls coming in as G.711 over the wan to UCCX. I
now want to change the codec to G.729 over the WAN so I need to add some
transcoding resources. They also have their conference bridges setup to use
Call Manager as G.711 so I want to move those conference into the router as
well. I know how to do all this and the configuration is not a problem, I am
more concerned with what would be the best use of the routers. Should I leave
the TDM interfaces split like this. Purchase two fully populated NM-HDV2 with
four PVDM2-64. Place one NM module in each router and split the CFB’s /
Transocding. Should I consolidate the TDM interfaces in one router and configure
the other router with two NM’s to only do the CFB and Transcoding? Or should
I try to consolidate everything and place all 9 PRI’s and the extra NM’s
for CFB and transcoding in one router. I have the extra physical routers so I
think I should use them. </p>
