NT5D11 and NT5D14 Lineside T1 Interface cards
This card occupies two card slots in the main or expansion cabinets. The Lineside T1 card can
be installed in the system's main cabinet or one of the expansion cabinets (there are no
limitations on the number of cards that can be installed in the Cabinet system).
The Lineside T1 card emulates an analog line card to the system software; therefore, each
channel is independently configurable by software control in LD 10. The Lineside T1 card also
comes equipped with a Man-Machine Interface (MMI) maintenance program. This feature
provides diagnostic information regarding the status of the T1 link.
The NT5D11 Lineside T1 interface card is an IPE line card that can be installed in the NT8D37
IPE module. Up to eight cards can be installed.

Physical description

The Lineside T1 card mounts into any two consecutive IPE slots. The card consists of a
motherboard and a daughterboard. The motherboard circuitry is contained on a standard 31.75
by 25.40 cm. (12.5 by 10.0 in) printed circuit board. The daughterboard is contained on a 5.08
by 15.24 cm (2.0 by 6.0 in) printed circuit board and mounts to the motherboard on six
standoffs.

Card connections

The Lineside T1 card uses the NT8D81AA Tip and Ring cable to connect from the IPE
backplane to the 25-pair amphenol connector on the IPE I/O input/output (I/O) panel. The I/O
panel connector then connects directly to a T1 line, external alarm, and an MMI terminal or
modem using the NT5D13AA Lineside T1 I/O cable available from Nortel.

Faceplate

The faceplate of the card is twice as wide as the other standard analog and digital line cards,
and occupies two card slots. It comes equipped with four LED indicators. See
