553-3011-100 Standard 14.00 January 2002
The line side T-1 card emulates an analog line card to the Option 11C system
software; therefore, each channel is independently configurable by software
control in the Single-line Telephone Administration program (LD 10). The
line side T-1 card also comes equipped with a Man-Machine Interface (MMI)
maintenance program. This feature provides diagnostic information
regarding the status of the T-1 link.
Physical description
The line side T-1 card mounts into any two consecutive IPE slots. The card
consists of a motherboard and a daughterboard; both are printed on standard
circuit board.
