Dial Concentrators - TNT / APX8000 R.I.P.

[Jerry Bonner <JBonner () enventis com>]

I'm told by our Alcatel rep that the APX 8000 is no longer supported and that we can no longer get hardware support 
because they "don't have any spare parts".

I share a certain amount of love for this platform dating back to Ascend, but what am I to do now? Obviously no one is 
making large investments in their dial platform, but are there any other viable alternatives out there that are 
actually supported?
