PRA-T1/2 can go in slots 1-7. Depending on the amount you place in - you will almost certainly need a GA as accommodate the channels to other shelves. Actis is your friend.

Whats the scenario?

Hi buddies

Thank you for your help.
In my case, customer want to add T1-Trunk (Q-SiG) to Tie T1 Gateway such as AudioCodes. But Actis requires to upgrade a system to latest release. we know that trunk is not requires a license. So, i suggest to add T1 trunk in Shelf-2, board-5. Is it possible? or any idea?

It is a system board status as below;

The biggest consideration is the amount of DSP's that the GD has in slot 2 0. If you overload it you will see "lack of compressor resources" alarms pop up - which will affect service.

You can always add the new T1 - and keep a close on on the Alarm log to see if you have any issues - pending on how much traffic you introduce.
