Calculating the PCF of a System with respect to cable length
10.4.3 Graph reference examples
FIG 10-12 in combination with the PCF graph (FIG 10-10) gives examples of how to calculate the
PCF value of a single trunk-outlet. Using these examples, the total PCF value of all three trunk-outlets
of a CCU can be calculated.
TS = Trunk-splitter DA1 = Dual Audio Interface units
TT = Table-top discussion units MPC = Multi-purpose Connection units
CON = Concentus units
NOTE: (1 m = 39.37 in)
