RE: (ASCEND) Max stacking how good is it!
Hi.
I'm not sure about your 2nd question, but as far as the 1st
question goes: Why not have a separate phone number for ISDN ONLY that
dials directly into the Max4004 PRIs? The analog customers can then
dial into another number for the huntgroup of several Max4048s.
