Page 610 of 894 NT8D14 Universal Trunk card
553-3001-211 Standard 2.00 September 2004
Port-to-port loss configuration
Loss parameters are selected on the NT8D14 Universal Trunk card by a
switchable pad controlled by codec emulation software. For convenience, the
pads settings are called “in” and “out.” Pad settings are determined by the two
factors listed below (the first is under direct user control; the second is
controlled indirectly):
• Class of Service is assigned in LD 14 (under direct user control).
• Port-to-port connection loss is automatically set by software on the basis
of the port type selected in LD 16; only the port type is set by the user
(controlled indirectly).
The transmission properties of each trunk are characterized by the class of
service assigned in LD 14. Transmission properties can be Via Net Loss
(VNL) or non-Via Net Loss (non-VNL).
The VNL class of service is assigned at the prompt CLS with the response
VNL. The non-VNL class of service is assigned at prompt CLS by selecting
either the Transmission Compensated (TRC) or Non-Transmission
Compensated (NTC) response.
Non-VNL trunks are assigned a TRC or NTC class of service to ensure
stability and minimize echo when connecting to long-haul trunks, such as Tie
