2-port system, Port 4 on a 4-port system, Ports 5 and 6 on a 6-port system, Ports 7 and 8 on an 8-port
system, Ports 9 and 10 on a 10-port system, or Ports 11 and 12 on a 12-port system. For Release 1 or 1.1,
the voice port used for Outcalling is Port 2 on a 2-port system, Port 4 on a 4-port system, or Port 6 on a
