Analog Ports - Nortel Remote Office 9110 Release Note

December 2003

Analog ports

The analog port (port 64) on a Remote Office 9150 unit is intended to provide
intra-office support according to these conditions:
The port provides the basic functionality of a POTS line, such as:
!
— dial tone
— DTMF tones
— local ringback
— other standard tones
— ring trip voltage for ringing a telephone or a fax machine
The port does not provide the following functionalities:
!
— disconnect supervision
— hook switch flash
— Message Waiting functionality
To make and receive local calls on the analog port or an ATA configured to a
Local and Remote port, configure a local DN to that port. You must then include
that port in a trunk group for it to receive inbound voice or fax calls. To place an
outbound voice or fax call on this port, you must enter the Local Calling SPRE
Code to obtain a local dial tone.
Because an analog port does not have disconnect supervision, a user must place
the device connected to that port on-hook to end a call. If the user does not place
the device connected to the analog port on-hook to end a call, it does not ring for
subsequent calls.
Auto Answer Back on M26xx series digital telephone sets connected
to Meridian SL-100 PBXs produces no dial tone
Auto Answer Back (AAB) activation on M26xx series digital telephone sets on
Remote Office units connected to Meridian SL-100 PBXs does not produce a
dial tone. The digital telephone sets operate properly, but no dial tone is present.
To produce dial tone in this situation, configure the port on the RLC as a TAPI
port.
