Terminal Adapter Data Stations

A terminal adapter data station uses a 7500B or ExpressRoute data module to convert MLX voice signals and DTE digital signals to the digital transmission signaling standard, so that it can send and receive digital signals. This type of station requires PRI facilities to send and receive data to and from digital data stations that are outside the system.

The system supports the following types of data stations connected to terminal adapters:

■MLX Voice and Terminal Adapter Data. This station includes a terminal adapter, a data terminal, and an MLX telephone.

■Terminal Adapter Data-Only.This station includes a terminal adapter, and a data terminal, but no telephone.

For your customer’s specifications, see Form 2a, System Numbering: Extension Jacks and Form 2b, System Numbering: Digital Adjuncts. Then refer to the appropriate section later in this chapter for instructions on setting up terminal adapter data stations.

NOTE:

A video conferencing data station is a synchronous terminal adapter data station. Refer to “Video Conferencing Data Stations” for more information.
