Trunk Engineering Guidelines
The number of trunks required for a typical ACD ranges from 1.1 to 1.7 times the 
number of agents (whenever a blocked call represents potential lost revenue). As 
in the case of agents, the number of trunks required for an ACD is based on the 
incoming traffic to each split, not the ACD as a whole.
The left-most column in Table 6-12
 lists the number of trunks required to service a 
split depending on the carried load in 
Erlangs and the blocking probability. Erlang 
is a unit of traffic intensity, or load, used to express the amount of traffic it takes to 
keep one facility busy for one hour. Blocking probability relates to the desired 
grade of service. The possible blocking probabilities are shown across the top of 
Table 6-12
, and the entries under the blocking probabilities are carried loads in 
Erlangs.
To determine the number of trunks needed for a given split, use Table 6-12
 as 
follows:
nYou will need a split report for the peak busy-hour (for example, list 
bcms split ## time xx:xx xx:xx) for the busiest day of the week.
NOTE:
If the time interval is sufficiently long to cover the busiest hours of the 
day (such as 8:00 to 18:00) you need only scan the report to 
determine which hour is the busy hour. If you have this report for a 
time other than the peak busy hour then you will need to estimate 
values for the busy hour.
nFor the identified peak busy hour, you will need to determine the AVG TALK 
TIME and the AVG SPEED ANS. Otherwise, you must estimate the 
average call duration: the total time a caller spends waiting for an answer, 
plus any time on hold (in queue), and plus the service time (the time the 
caller spends talking to an agent).
nIf you know the calling volume, otherwise referred to as the busy-hour calls, 
then use that value. As an alternative, you must estimate the number of 
busy hour calls received by the ACD split during peak levels of caller 
activity.
NOTE:
The calling volume is simply the sum of the two fields (# ACD and # 
ABAND) for the identified busy hour. This does not include:
ncalls never queued
ncalls given Central Office (CO) busy
nMultiply the call duration (in fractions of an hour) by the rate of busy-hour 
calls (in calls per hour). This number is the carried load in Erlangs. 
Abandoned calls should be multiplied by the AVG ABAND time.
