Interesting....the VC limit had never been a practical limit the whole time I used Canopy. I guess we're saying it could be now?

The VC limit is still 238 on 2.5ms framing. 5ms framing cuts that in half. The HP channel enabled on an SM also sucks up a VC, so keep that in mind.

Maximum amount of SMs.

The 450s have a limit of 200 (or so). Practically, you run out of bandwidth before reaching that limit.

With the 450M having a potential of 3-4 times the bandwidth capacity, the number of VCs available may become a limit. Right now we hit 60-70 customers per AP before the downlink utilization is hitting max capacity. With three times the bandwidth available, 180-210 customers becomes doable. If 10-15% has our voip service, that cuts the available VCs down and limits the amount of customers that can be installed.

Will that happen? Probably not, and if so, thats a good problem to have.

I�m curious if the max SM count has been increased.

I don't think there is an answer. Or are you asking what is the maximum number of SMs it will register to?
At one time, in the early days of Canopy, the answer was 200.

Or are you asking about loading and performance?

How many SMs can a 450M handle?

I can�t seem to find the answer in the manual
