Maximum ringing IP phones

[msouva]

I have been searching for an answer to this and I am in the process of opening a ticket with our Mitel vendor.  I was wondering what is the maximum number of ringing IP phone sets on a Mitel 3300 with version 8.0 PR3.  14.0.0.97.  I see from notes and other posts from 32 (the number of phones in a group)

Here is what I am looking at for this issue.  I have a front door phone that when the button is pushed it dials to a suite that has six analog extensions tied to it.  The IP phones in the building all have a multicall button programmed on the phone set with one of these six analog extensions.  I have approximately 130+ phones that are set up like this.  It is my understanding that not all these phones will ring.  I would agree with this with analog phones and possible digital phones that would have a ringer equivalence number, but these IP phones get their power from the network POE switch and would not draw down like the REN phones would.

Thoughts?

The limit depends on the controller being used, and is tied to the available IP signalling ports on the controller processor. A more robust controller will have a higher limit.

I thought that was set paging... Doesn't ringing have a hard 172 appearance limit?

You may be right.

I got a call back from our vendor here and they said that the maximum number of IP phones the system can ring is 200.
