Even on the M1, that's essentially what is happening (the orginal Companion
Adjunct was a 0x32 KSU with different plastic). A Companion set is a sort of
Norstar phone, no matter what system it runs on.

It'd be interesting if the Citel supports them, although I am not sure
that'd be more cost-effective.

The whole point of the Norstar in the middle is to turn the Companions into
analog ports. Yes, it is a bit kludgy, but it's pretty much certain to work.

If they have the Companion phones already, there's a chance they already
have the Norstar KSU.
