On a mega system
Keep in mind that 10 station modules is the limit for regular
Norstar sets, and 2 station modules for Companion Base
Stations is the limit on an XC configuration.
For example, a system expanded to 14 ports (mega size)
includes two 6-port expansion cartridges with fiber ports
numbered 3 to 14 on the expansion cartridges, and 1 and 2 on
the ICS. The Base Stations must be physically connected to
fiber ports 13 and 14 only. See “12-port Expansion Cartridge
with Companion” on page 15.
Tip -
In the fully expanded mega configuration, Station
Modules 13 and 14 are reserved for Base Stations only.
