software and down loaded at power up and by software commands.

Provides indication of card status from self-test diagnostics on
faceplate Light Emitting Diode (LED)

Supports loopback of PCM signals to DS30X for diagnostic purposes

Card ID provided for auto configuration and determining serial number
and firmware level of card

Software controlled terminating impedance (600, 900, or 1200 ohm)
two and four-wire modes

Allows trunk type to be configured on a per port basis in software

Software controlled 600 ohm balance impedance is provided.

isolation of foreign potentials from transmission and signaling circuit

Software control of A/mu law mode

Software control of digit collection

Card interfaces

The E and M Trunk card passes voice and signaling data over DS-30X
loops and maintenance data over the card LAN link.

The E and M Trunk card contains four identical and independently
configurable trunk interface units (also referred to as circuits). Each
unit provides impedance matching and a balance network in a signal
transformer/analog hybrid circuit. Also provided are relays for placing
outgoing call signaling onto the trunk. Signal detection circuits monitor
incoming call signaling. A CODEC performs A/D and D/A conversion of
trunk analog voiceband signals to digital PCM signals.

The four units on the card can operate in the A-Law or the µ-Law
companding mode. The mode is selected by making service change
entries. Each unit can be independently configured for 2-wire E and M,
4-wire E and M, and paging trunk types. The trunk type is selected by
service change entries and jumper strap settings. All units on the card can
perform the following features:

convert transmission signals from analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog

provide outpulsing on the card: make/break ratios are defined in
software and downloaded at power-up and by software command

provide 600-ohms balance and termination impedance (2-wire
configuration)
