One XCMC pack serving a 2-group system
1Example 1: No re-configuration required
A two-group Meridian 1 system serving a call center is expected to
upgrade 300 analog sets (100 administrative sets and 200 agent sets) to
CLASS sets. The 100 administrative sets are located in group 0, where
are also located all incoming trunks. The 200 agent sets are in group 1,
which will continue to be used as agent sets after upgrading. Assume that
group 1 is also equipped with 500 non-CLASS sets. How many CMOD
units are needed to serve this application and does the customer need to
re-configure the switch (move sets and trunks between group 0 and group
1) to do the CLASS feature upgrade?
Solution:
The table lookup indicates that 900 equivalent CLASS sets
(=100+200x4) need 17 CMOD units. Since one pack provides 32 units,
one XCMC pack is sufficient for this customer.
Group 1 is equipped with 200 agent CLASS sets or 800 equivalent sets
which is greater than the 100 sets in group 0, the pack should be installed
in group 1.
The total equipped ports in group 1 is 1300 (=200x4+500). For a 2-group
system, the second group is allowed to have 1760 sets (from Table 38)
without junctor traffic concerns, therefore, there is no need for the
customer to re-configure the switch.
In addition, both “100 CLASS sets in a group without CMOD units
(group 0)”, and” 200 agent CLASS sets in a group separate from
incoming trunks (group 1)” statements are within engineering rules,
therefore, no re-configuration is necessary.
