Trunk capacity
It is difficult to estimate system capacities, as every installation varies
depending on end-user needs. In a moderate to busy work environment,
however, a common ratio of users to trunks normally falls between four and
six users to each trunk.
Software Generic
The Option 11C Mini supports X11 Release 24.24 and later software.
Conference channels
The MSC card supports 16 conference channels.
Power supply
The universal power supply unit is installed inside the chassis before the
system is sent to the customer. The power supply unit requires no installation
by the customer. The power supply operates on standard line voltages of
100-240 VAC. Total output power is 363 Watts.
Note:
The Option 11C Mini system does not support DC power input.
