Client that has 12 FXO lines from telco. Is there any add-on product to get the FXO count of a UC5x0 installation beyond 8 FXO?
Thanks in advance.

Yes, SPA8800 with four additional FXO ports at a very affordable price:

You can deploy the SPA8800's FXO ports as a generic SIP trunk using CCA, so it is supported. We will provide detailed configuration instructions, listing benefits and caveats, in the next few weeks. We will accompany this tech note with an XML file that can be imported into CCA under the SIP trunking parameters.

Is this a desktop form factor unit or a rackmount one? If it is desktop form factor (an 8-use,r or a 16-user system), then please follow Marcos' suggestion. If this is a rackmount unit (a 24-user, a 32-user, or a 48-user system), then note that there are 2 slots on UC 520s that support the factory installed 8 FXO ports, in addition, there is an empty expansion VIC slot that can be used to support an additional 4-port VIC2-4FXO card.

No. The rack-mount UC 520 has a built-in 4-port FXS card. In addition, it also has 2 built-in 4-port FXO cards plus an empty expansion VIC slot (that can accommodate another 4-port FXS or 4-port FXO, or T1/E1).

Thanks for the quick reply. Is the SPA8800 configurable from the CCA? If not, would integration of that device with the UC540 by CLI be supported?

Hi Marcos, is that guide already available?, as you said i understand it´s possible to use SPA8800 FXO ports as an additional incoming/outgoing PSTN resource in a UC520/540/560 deployment configured as generic SIP trunk using CCA, am i right?
Thanks for your help!

You are right, but we do not have this documentation posted yet. Apologies for the delay. There is no ETA for it either.
Thanks,

UC540?
10-05-2009 02:12 PM
On UC 540, you can have a maximum of 8 FXO ports. Use the recommendations from Marcos.

On the rack mount, under the 12 FXO (8 FXO onboard plus 4 FXO VWIC) configuration though, you would lose the 4 FXS correct?

I still only can use 4 lines
How do I add or cofigure additional 4 lines

This is old solved thread. Your chances someone will notice your comment are rather low.
Moreover you provided no details (at least show ver, show inv, show diag).
