Avaya IP500 Legacy Card Carrier Base Card (700417215) provides a migration and expansion solution for Avaya IP Office systems by allowing compatible IP400 trunk and Voice Compression Module (VCM) cards to be installed in an IP500 Control Unit. This helps organizations continue using supported legacy IP400 hardware when upgrading or maintaining an IP500 system, reducing the need to replace compatible cards that are already available.
Avaya IP500 Legacy Card Carrier Base Card (700417215) Features
The Avaya IP500 Legacy Card Carrier Base Card is specifically designed to integrate selected IP400 daughter boards with the IP500 platform.
