Forecasting trunk and line growth
The first step in provisioning a new system is to forecast the number of trunks
and lines required at two-year and five-year intervals.
The number of trunks and lines required when the system is placed in service
(cutover) is determined by the customer. If the customer is unable to provide
a two-year and five-year growth forecast, then an estimate of annual growth
is used to estimate the number of trunks and lines required at the two-year and
five-year intervals.
Calculating number of trunks required
Enter the quantity of each type of trunk required in Worksheet A. This
determines the number of trunk cards required at cutover, two-year, and
five-year intervals.
Calculating number of lines required
Enter the quantity of each type of analog and digital line required in
Worksheet B. This determines the number of Meridian Digital Telephone
TNs and Analog (500/2500 type) TNs required at cutover, two-year, and
five-year intervals.
