Managing Extensions 53
virtual devices such as the pcXset™ PC soft telephone Client and the
ConneXtions H.323 Gateway.
The extension length (either 3 or 4), which applies to all extensions on a
system, indicates that all extensions contain that number of digits. You
cannot mix 3-digit and 4-digit extensions within the same NBX system.
The NBX 100 and the SuperStack 3 NBX systems both support 3-digit and
4-digit dial plans, although there are some differences in the extension
ranges as noted in these tables. By default, the NBX 100 uses a 3-digit
dial plan, and the SuperStack 3 NBX uses a 4-digit dial plan.
Table 8
lists typical extension ranges in a 3-digit and a 4-digit dial plan.
Table 9
describes these ranges in more detail and gives the default ranges
and values for 3-digit and 4-digit dial plans.

that they fall within the appropriate range.
