NT5K21 XMFC/MFE card
553-3001-211 Standard 3.00 August 2005
The exact meaning of each MFC signal number (1-15) within each level can
be programmed separately for each trunk route using MFC. This
programming can be done by the customer and allows users to suit the needs
of each MFC-equipped trunk route.
Each MFC-equipped trunk route is associated with a data block that contains
the MFC signal functions supported for that route.
MFE signaling
The NT5K21 XMFC/MFE card can be programmed for MFE signaling
which is used mainly in France. MFE is much the same as MFC except it has
its own set of forward and backward signals.
Table 142 lists the forward and backward frequencies for MFE. The one
backward signal for MFE is referred to as the “control” frequency.
