Connecting Extensions
A fully expanded DSX-40 can connect up to 26 extensions. The basic Main Equipment Cabinet provides 8
digital station ports and 2 analog station ports built in. The con
fi
guration of the remaining 16 station ports
depends on the combination of 8-Port Digital Station and 8-Port Analog Station Cards installed. See

ing Expansion Cards
