44 System architecture
As an example of a superloop configuration, Figure 16 "Eight segments per
superloop" (page 44) shows eight segments per superloop. If a segment in
this configuration is equipped with analog line cards and trunk cards, a high
concentration environment of 120 timeslots to 128–512 Terminal Numbers
(TNs) is provided. If half of the data TNs on digital line cards are enabled,
this configuration provides a concentration of 120 timeslots to 768 TNs.
For a detailed description of superloop-to-segment configurations, see
Communication Server 1000M and Meridian 1 Large System Planning and
Engineering (NN43021-220).

Intelligent Peripheral Equipment
Using pulse code modulation (PCM), Intelligent Peripheral Equipment (IPE)
converts analog signals to digital signals before switching is performed
by the network. This conversion method samples the amplitude of the
