Coral,
We never installed a SV9100. Will get some pricing just to see how the costs stack up though.

Brokeda
The application is a small hotel, 16 channels should be more than sufficient in this application. Client wants down and dirty, no voice mail, no hotel motel package and only about 8 POTS lines on the system.
My thoughts are if most people are like myself, they use their cell phone for incoming and outgoing calls, only use of the hotel phone is to call the front desk. If my assumption is correct and they want to restrict the phones for outgoing calls, then no, I will not be putting some of the trunks in the second cabinet.

Toolie,
You are correct , systems will be side by side.
