Note: The left value denotes the maximum number of modules that can be installed per
chassis under peak conditions where all ports go off hook simultaneously.
The right value denotes the maximum number of modules that can be installed per
chassis under average load conditions, where four ports are ringing and four ports are
in an active call.
