When upgrading DS2000 to DSX-80/160, much of the DS2000 station equipment is compatible with the
new DSX-80/160 system. This allows the customer to preserve their substantial investment is DS-Series
telephones when migrating to the DSX-80/160. Here are some basic upgrade guidelines:
1.The DS2000 4-slot KSU is not compatible with DSX.
You must replace the DS2000 4-slot KSU with a DSX-80 KSU. The FCC prohibits the use of DS KSUs
with DSX.
2.The DS2000 8-Slot KSU is not compatible with DSX.
You must replace the DS2000 8-slot KSU with a DSX-160 KSU. The FCC prohibits the use of DS KSUs
with DSX.
3.You must install a DSX CPU Card.
The DS CPU PCB cannot run DSX software.
4.You must install a DSX 16 Port Digital Station Card (16ESIU) in KSU port 1.
The DSX system will not operate without a 16ESIU PCB in slot 1.
5.To use telephone programming, you must connect at least one DSX telephone.
DSX telephones connect only to DSX 16ESIU PCBs.
6.Do not use DS2000 power supplies in DSX-80/160.
You must replace all DS2000 power supplies with DSX supplies. The FCC prohibits the use of DS
power supplies with DSX.
7.DS-Series telephones must connect to DS 16DSTU PCBs.
Install 16DSTU PCBs in any available KSU slot but slot 1.

Combined System Load Factor
Understanding System Load Factor
The combination of lines and extensions you can connect to your DSX system may be limited by the System
Load Factor. Use the Combined System Load Factor Worksheet chart on the next page to verify your system’s configuration. When entering data on the chart, for each installed card make entries for each Load
Type. There are two Load Types to consider: 5 VDC and 40 VDC.
To check your system configuration:
1. Indicate the quantity for each card installed in the
- The number of keysets, single line sets, and DSS Consoles does not affect the load factor.
2.
For each item and for each Load Type, multiply the
column.
- For example, two 16ESIU Cards have a load of 16 for 5 VDC and 40 for 40 VDC.
3. Add up the entries in each

•DSX-80 can only have 1 power supply.
•DSX-160 can have up to 3 power supplies. You cannot have more than two 16ESIU or 16DSTU Cards per power
supply, regardless of System Load Factor calculations.
•Exceeding the allowed Load Type Total (Item 1) will cause the system’s power supplies to automatically shut down
and/or cause erratic system operation.
•The total of all station, line, and DSS Console ports cannot exceed 160.

Summary:
•To upgrade, Site 2 must invest in a new DSX-80 KSU, DSX Power Supply, DSX CPU Card, DSX 4x8 IntraMail, and a DSX
16ESIU PCB.
•Site 2 must also add eight new DSX telephones. This is required because only one DS DSTU PCB remains, supporting
16 DS telephones.
•Site 2 can alternately do the following:
- Replace the DSX-80 4-Slot KSU with and DSX-160 8-Slot KSU.
- Purchase another DSX Power Supply (due to Load Factor considerations).
- Install the 16DSTU PCBs in the new DSX KSU for connecting their existing DS keysets.
- Purchase a single DSX 22-Button Display Telephone for programming, and connect it to the DSX 16ESIU PCB.
