At least you have a new cabinet!! I have been told that there are no suitable places at all near my existing cabinet and as such it will never be upgraded!
So I'm stuck with no chance of fibre due to the fact that 100 years ago they made roads with narrow pavements! Flippin' BT are living 100 years in the past as well!

Huawei have a 288 large cab and a 96 line small cab
ECI have a large 256 and a small 128.
What they install is down to the expected demand in the area, usually, or available space in the old copper cab.

I think you will fiond the small Huawei is 128 connections just like the ECI. I wasn't aware of an ECI 256 but it sounds likely there is one. Do you have a photo by any chance?
The whole thread died 12 months ago by the way. I'm unsure why the previous poster resurrected it  .

... or available space in the old copper cab. Uh?
Where does that come from? If there isn't space for the interconnects the old cab gets re-skinned.

There's a cab near me in a conservation area that was listed on the planning application as an ECI 256 DSLAM but what's been installed is an ECI 128 cab. Maybe the 128 and 256 use the same cabinet.
If you Google "Openreach ECI 256" it comes quite a few planning applications mentioning the ECI 256 DSLAM

ECI uses the same cabinet shell for either 128 or 256 line DSLAM.

Assuming its not already been reshelled.
And the small Huawei cabs are 96 lines. Its not called the Huawei 96 for nothing.
