That has got to be a mistake.  Maybe they were thinking of the P25 which
is only designed for that kind of load.  The P50 and P75 should all
support perhaps 100 or so connections, assuming the NAT bug is fixed so
the connections get released again.  :)  The rumor has it that the NAT
table holds 500 connections, which assuming normally configured web
browsers ought to be good for about 100 users assuming they all decide to
open connections at once.  Assuming they don't, then it should be good for
as many users as you can reasonably put on your one BRI (which I would
think, would be somewhat less than 100 if they are all using it at once!)
