I see in the manual that the system max's out at 480 total station ports (with three cabinets). So i could assume that 160 ports for each cabinet. My problem is that our sales mgr sold a single cabinet 7400 with 200 ip phones. Can anyone confirm this or not. I could not find anywhere in the manual the capacity for a single cabinet. Thanks.

Digital systems scale with hardware and more phones means more slots and more cabinets.

This does not apply to IP systems.
It is quite possible to get 200 IP phones out of a single OS7400 cabinet.

The key issue to be aware off is the number of TDM devices on the system, (analogue or digital lines, digital phones, and analogue phones) as this will determine how many MGI ports you will need.

In ideal circumstances, you could get 480 IP phones to register to a single cabinet, but in practise this tends not to be possible because of other requirements.

OAS64 cards? If so, then that sounds reasonable. SIP trunks vs PRI would even be less a burden on the MGIs.

Your config sounds OK.

Depending on the costs in your market, you could also use a MGI64 card instead of the three OAS cards.
You might consider using one of these, as it provides more MGI ports, if you dont need the Mobex or MPS features of the OAS cards.
