BCM200/400 4.0 Installation and Maintenance Guide
Choosing the assigned order for MBMs
Assign the MBMs and DS30 buses in the order shown in Figure 68 on page 115.
Station MBMs are assigned starting with DS30 2. This allows telephones to start numbering from
the system Start DN (the default is 221).
Trunk MBMs are assigned starting at DS30 7 in a system with a 2/6 DS30 split, and at DS30 6 in a
system with a 3/5 split. The exception to this is the 4x16 and the DDIM, which require two DS30
buses that must be set to a DS30 that has the next bus open.
Figure 68 Assigning single-density MBMs to the DS30 bus hierarchy
Trunk MBMs are assigned
starting with the last
available MBM DS30 bus
(DS30 6 or 7, depending on
the bus split in effect).
Exception: a 4x16 or a DDIM
cannot be assigned to the
last DS30 bus.

* DS30 7 is not available to any MBM if your system has been
configured with a 3/5 bus split
MBMs that require two DS30 buses, such as the DSM32 and the
4x16, must be assigned to DS30s higher than 6, to accommodate all
the resource requirements.
