Circuit pack in the control unit that provides the phys-
ical jacks for connection of telephones and/or out-
side lines/trunks to the communications system. In
the name of a module, the first digit indicates the
number of line/trunk jacks it contains; the last digit
indicates the number of extension jacks it contains. If
no letters appear after the number, a line/trunk mod-
ule provides loop-start trunks or an extension jack
module provides analog or tip/ring jacks. For exam-
ple, a 408 GS/LS MLX module contains four
line/trunk jacks and eight digital (MLX) extension
jacks, provides either loop-start (LS) or ground-start
(GS) trunks. There are also modules for the proces-
sor and power supply.
