Max FXS ports in a UC500 solution

[CHRIS YEO]

Hi,

I know that internally we can have a max of 8 fxs ports (when using the expansion), but lets say I wanted 20 of them, is there a solution for that?

Thanks!

You could use a VG224.  It is kind of expensive, but there are other options available as well, like a SPA8000.

It is a CLI only config.

Steve,

Thanks for the quick response.

Has anyone used multiple SPA's on their UC500?

Thanks!

I would definitely recommend the VG224. The CLI is quite easy to use and the 24 ports can be configured directly though CUCM.
