4.6. Nortel Meridian 1
The Nortel Meridian 1 is a full-featured PBX that can provide thousands of
ports and many PBX voice and data features. The Meridian 1 uses digital
signaling to control its station sets and digitized voice. The PBX uses plug-in
station modules to connect to station sets, and trunk modules to connect to
trunk lines.
The Dialogic

PBX Integration Board has either four or eight channels that
can be connected directly to a station module in a Meridian 1. The switch has
many standard features that are supported by the PBX Integration Board, such
as:
• direct inward dialing (DID)
• hands free operation (for MWI ON/OFF operation only)
• speed dialing
• hunt groups
• message waiting indication
• user programmable Feature Keys
• called/calling number identification
• call forwarding
