I thought I remembered 8 channel connections. I found this in the 
OS/390 2.10 GRS Planning manual:

Model A1 can connect two systems through up to 63 data links.
Model 1 can connect up to four systems through up to 126 data links.
Model 2 can connect up to eight systems through up to 252 data links.

ISTR it was sometimes referred to as an "octopus".
