Hybrid Access module 

            Users can upgrade to the next-generation digital
            technologies such as ISDN and Frame Relay using Hybrid
            Access. It gives users integrated remote networking
            support for digital sessions via ISDN and Frame Relay.
            Each module connects up to 192 remote 56/64K Frame
            Relay or ISDN devices such as Terminal Adapters (TAs)
            and Frame Relay Access Devices (FRADs). An entire
            system can connect up to 720 devices. 

                Support for ISDN, switched digital and NX56/64K
                channelized Frame Relay 
>>>             Each module connects up to 192 56/64K Frame Relay
                or ISDN devices 
                Support for up to 720 concurrent devices 


I realize this represents the series 1 module, but since there is NO 
mention of the series 2 card on the website...
