Traffic Contracts - Wavetek ANT-20 Operating Manual

Broadband Analyzer/Generator
3 Signaling
The instrument simulates the signaling functions of a terminal on the user-network interface
(UNI). Up to 4 connections can be switched simultaneously.
"Channel associated signaling" can be selected as an option. Subaddresses can also be
optionally used.
