<< my official Ascend product guide. It says: 2,016 concurrent modem sessions or 4,032 ISDN or 56/64 Frame relay connections 150 T1/FT1/E1/FE1 frame relay connections per system.>> Jeff, Don't get me wrong, but your guide says "system", and I'm pretty sure that means 3 TNTs linked together, so don't confuse it with one TNT. I believe one TNT can terminate 50 T1 frame relay conections or 672 Basic Rate ISDN connections. One T1 frame relay module for the TNT has 10 T1 connection ports, and one TNT can hold five of these modules, thus fifty T1 frame relay connections per TNT, and 3 TNTs per "system". I'm pretty sure that one TNT box (as opposed to system) can terminate only 192 analog modem calls. I am positive that one Total Control Hub with the new Hiper Access Cards (which can terminate 24 calls each) is capable of handling more analog modem calls than one TNT box (not what Ascend calls a system). This is all from memory, but my memory is pretty accurate.
