Maximum number of interfaces in Port Channel on Nexus 5596

Let me preface this by saying I am not a network expert....

 

I noticed that our customer had configured a port channel on their Nexus 5596 comprised of 16 interfaces. I thought the maximum number of interfaces in a port channel was 8 interfaces? I see in the Nexus 7000 documentation that if you configure 16 interfaces, the remaining 8 will be in "hot standby." Is this the same behavior on the Nexus 5000 series?

 

Thank you.

Same behavior on the 5500 series and other Cisco switches like 3750, 3850 , etc..
