trunk access code
A trunk access code is a number that is used by the Remote Office 9150 unit to
determine which trunk to use when routing a call. For example, 9 is a common
trunk access code used to obtain an outside line.
Note: All trunk access codes are configured on the Remote Office 9150 unit
with a pound sign (# in North America) so that there are no conflicts with host
PBX numbering plans.
trunk groups
A trunk group consists of one or more trunk lines that are logically grouped. You
can configure up to eight trunk groups on the Remote Office 9150 unit.
trunk interface modules
Used to route calls over the circuit-switched network. The number of modules
you must install on the Remote Office 9150 unit depends on the number of
simultaneous calls you want in host-controlled or local-controlled mode.
