You could load a 7206VXR up with as many PC-MC-8T1 (or newer equivalent) cards as you need if you need to terminate individual T1s. The DSU functionality is built into the cards. I haven't looked, but I wouldn't be surprised if you can find these for a reasonable price on the used market. If you don't mind older hardware that's nearing end-of-life, a 3640 with NM-2Ws and T1 WICs will handle 8 T1s without too much trouble in a 2U box. You'd also probably want one of the NMs to be an NM-1FE-2W. Again, these are probably easy to find and very cheap on the used market because the 3640s are nearing end-of-life, if they haven't been EOL'd yet already. jms _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
