we have a TA924E 3rd gen installed in a site we took over. we ran into some DTMF issues with the SIP, so we went and upgraded the firmware on the unit, after the upgrade the SIP to PRI calls started failing. doing a debug showed that the calls were failing due to License violations. going back to the original firmware the unit processes calls normally. and show license features fails on the original firmware..
here is the original version that processes calls
adtran-924e-pri#sh sys
ADTRAN, Inc. OS version R10.9.6.E

the failure when we make a call which comes in SIP and gets routed to a PRI is..(we sanitized the numbers)
the switchboard takes the call and shows a route but then this happens.
2020.12.11 06:00:32 LICENSING.CAPACITY Licensed capacity over limit:
2020.12.11 06:00:32 SB.CALL 1 RTP resource unavailable or SDP negotiation failed. Call from (1xxxxxxxxxx) to (1xxxxxxxxxx).
the license shows like it has no SIP call capability in the new version of firmware??
Name Installed Active Quantity

Enable Media Anchor no n/a
Enable Voice Trunks yes n/a
Enable Voice Users yes n/a
SIP Call Capacity no n/a
I found it.. looks like they started requiring SBC feature pack after firmwar R11.8.0 and above.. since this adtran covers 2 SIP trunks, the calls from trunk to trunk die..
we ordered 1962SBCF50, hopefully this is the correct thing to do and add to our unit so it will run on the later firmware, if its not then let us know the proper way to obtain the coirrect licensing required.
