The answer is that as many digits are tranmitted as are requred to do
the routing in the distant office. The number of digits would or could
be different on different trunks between the same offices or for
different calls on the same trunk. Normal subscriber calls could
transmit different numbers digits than maintenance connections on the
same trunks.
