Chapter 7 — Meridian Modular
Telephones

Functional description

Peripheral equipment requirements

The Meridian Modular Telephones are designed to provide cost effective
integrated voice and data communication capability. They interface with
Meridian 1 Option 11C Compact using the Digital Line Card (DLC). No
additional hardware is required at the line circuit to provide data
communication.
Meridian Modular Telephones are connected to the system through a
two-wire loop carrying two independent 64 Kb/s PCM Channels with
associated signaling channels. One of the two PCM channels is dedicated to
voice while the other is dedicated to data traffic. Line cords and handset cords
on all Meridian Digital Telephones are equipped with snap-in TELADAPT
connectors for easy and quick connecting procedures.
The telephone interfaces with the NTMW05 Digital Line Card (DLC) in
Meridian 1 Option 11C Compact. The digital line card supports 24 voice ports
(units 0 through 23) and eight Integrated Data ports (units 24 through 31,
associated with voice units 8 through 15), each of which supports one data
and one voice channel. A voice TN and a data TN are assigned in the
software.
