I agree that converting the SLT's to A lead control is the way to go.
The disadvantage in my mind is I can't do it to every SLT I own, for example, the pay phone. Plus if I add another SLT, I have to go through the rewire process again, which isn't that big of a deal, but I tend to like to keep things configured as they were when they left the factory.
I gotta say It's very satisfying to just plug in an SLT, pick up the receiver and watch my 2565's light up.
I'm pretty much sold on how I have it setup, but the "before or after line card debate" has my interest.
Things sure seem to work better by putting it all after the line card, but I can see why this could cause problems for the cards. I have about 8 spare K400E cards if I should end up toasting one.
Having said all this, until I can figure out the noise that is present when wiring SLT's before the cards... I'm opting to leave everything after the card.
And now, in the red corner with blue trunks... Ed...
In the green corner, with red trunks... Arthur...
Have a clean debate and no hitting below the belt....
