The CE-100T-8 supports up to eight low order VCAT circuits. The available circuit sizes are VT1.5-nv, where n ranges from 1 to 64. The total number of VT members cannot exceed 168 VT1.5s with each of the two pools on the card supporting 84 VT1.5s. The user can create a maximum of two circuits at the largest low order VCAT circuit size, VT1.5-64v.

A user can combine CCAT high order, VCAT high order, and VCAT low order circuits in any way as long as there is a maximum of eight circuits and the mapper chip bandwidth restrictions are observed. The following table details the maximum density service combinations.
