For each type of data station, planning how the data equipment connects to
extension jacks on the control unit involves the following tasks:
1. Review Form 2a, on which you entered codes (A for analog, D for digital,
and B for basic telephone) and find the telephone type and the user,
location, or function for each data station to be connected.
extension jack types, the corresponding module types, and the equipment
