Choosing the assigned order for MBMs
Assign the MBMs and DS30 buses in the order shown in
Station MBMs are assigned starting with DS30 2. This allows telephones to start numbering from
the system Start DN (the default is 221).
Trunk MBMs are assigned starting at DS30 7 in a system with a 2/6 DS30 split, and at DS30 6 in a
system with a 3/5 split. The exception to this are the 4x16, 8x16, and the DDIM, which require two
DS30 buses that must be set to a DS30 that has the next bus open.
Figure 69 Assigning single-density MBMs to the DS30 bus hierarchy
Trunk MBMs
are assigned
starting with the last
available MBM DS30 bus
(DS30 6 or 7, depending on
the bus split in effect).
Exception: A 4x16, 8x16, or a
DDIM cannot be assigned to
the last DS30 bus.

configured with a 3/5 bus split
MBMs that require two DS30 buses, such as the DSM32, 4x16, 8x16,
and DDIM must be assigned to DS30s higher than 6, to accommodate
all the resource requirements.
