the NT to any Network Control Module (NCM) on the Metasys system.
(For the NCM45x0-2 model, the NCM4500 NT Cable Kit is required.)
This direct connection allows for easy access to any system functions
available for your password level.
You can also connect the NT to the NCM from remote locations (up to
one mile) on a separate NT trunk. (This capability is not available with
the NCM45x0-2 model.)
