The VNL class of service is assigned at the prompt CLS with the response
VNL. The non-VNL class of service is assigned at prompt CLS by selecting
either the Transmission Compensated (TRC) or Non-Transmission
Compensated (NTC) response.

Non-VNL trunks are assigned a TRC or NTC class of service to ensure
stability and minimize echo when connecting to long-haul trunks, such as
TIE trunks. The class of service determines the operation of the switchable
pads contained in each unit. They are assigned as follows:

TRC for a 2-wire non-VNL trunk facility with a loss of greater than 2
dB, or for which impedance compensation is provided, or for a 4-wire
non-VNL facility

NTC for a 2-wire, non-VNL trunk facility with a loss of less than 2 dB,
or when impedance compensation is not provided

See

Table 238 "Pad switching algorithm" (page 625)

for the pad switching

control for the various through connections and the actual port-to-port loss
introduced for connections between the Universal trunk card and any other
IPE or PE port designated as Port B.
