Right. So with a theoretical 2000 kpbs of bandwidth available, that's 
theoretically 50 calls. (At least, until somebody decides to open an RDP 
session or twelve...)

We will have Internet access in both buildings, so the idea is to route 
incomming calls over the Internet usiong VoIP to run the building that 
has been disconnected to the PSTN. (I'm not *actually* sure if our 
switchboard can transfer incomming calls to other telephone numbers...)
