to indicate call progress to an end user by means of
audio information.
2. Tx PCM BUS
A 2.048 MHz Pulse Code Modulated (PCM) bus
containing 32 slots. Audio received from the RF
channel is transmitted on these slots by the channel
modules and received by the other system modules.
3. Rx PCM Bus
A 2.048 MHz Pulse Code Modulated (PCM) bus
contains 32 slots. Audio is transmitted from the other
system modules to these slots and received by the
channel modules to be transmitted on the RF channel.
