System Overview
plane edge connectors. The SVM-400E is an external unit and has it's own power supply that requires a separate
power cord. The SVM-400E ports must also be connected to the last two digital station positions on the iDCS 16
for connectivity and integration to the SVM-400E. The SVMi-8E will draw four(4) Power Units (SEPU), as a basic 4
port system and six (6) SEPUs with either of the VPMs installed, increasing the maximum capacity to 8 ports. The
SVMi-16E will draw eight (8) SEPUs as a basic 8 port system, ten (10) SEPUs as a 12 ports system with either of the
VPMs installed, and twelve (12) SEPUs when fully loaded with any combination of the 2 VPMs to the maximum of
16 Ports.
Currently the Message Storage capacity, on the SVM-400E and SVMi-2E, are all the same, approximately 2.5 hours.
The SVMi-4E has storage capacity of approximately 15 hours. On either the SVMi-8E or the SVMi-16E the message
storage capacity is about 140 hours with a Hard Drive installed and 15 hours with Compact Flash installed on the
SVMi-8E or about 15 hours with Compact Flash installed on the SVMi-16E.
■
Message Storage Capacities may vary from installation to installation. Number of custom Prompts and
Personal greetings recorded can effect the overall Message Storage Capacity. Also Audiotex and Fax appli-
cations can decrease the overall Message Storage Capacity.
■
Message Storage Capacities are reflective of the total amount of drive space available after the Operating
System, Voice Drivers, Application Software, and three standard System Languages are installed. Adding
more languages will decrease the Message Storage Capacity by 30 to 40 minutes for each language added.
Conversely, removing one or two of the three standard languages can increase the Message Storage Capacity
by 30 to 40 minutes for each of the languages removed.
■
As time goes on, improvements in technology will allow for changes in storage time.
The modular design of the SVMi-2E, SVMi-8E, and SVMi-16E allows them to be expanded to add voice ports as
needed. Only one SVM/SVMi E-Series card can be installed in a system and use another voice mail system can NOT
be used in combination with the SVM/SVMi E-Series.
