Solved: DS3's limit on a 7206

a.mir · ‎04-06-2006

Can any tell what is the limit or how many ds3's can be installed in one 7206vxr router.With Cisco 7206VXR (NPE-G1) processor (revision B) with 491520K/32768K bytes of memory.

125184K bytes of ATA PCMCIA card at slot 2 (Sector size 512 bytes).

16384K bytes of Flash internal SIMM (Sector size 256K).

Any help will be appreciated

Thanks.

Hi,

Based on bandwidth points calculation alone, you should be able to populate all 6 slots of the 7206 with DS3 cards, even if they were the 2-port DS3 cards. That means you could have a theoretical maximum of 12 T3 ports on a 7206VXR. In practice, however, that would seem unlikely...

However, there is nothing stopping you from doing so.

Hope that helps - pls rate the post if it does.
