star configuration	A private network arrangement where either three or more
	communications systems are connected with one system
	acting as the hub system. See also series configuration.
station	See extension.
station jack	See extension jack.
Station Message	See SMDR.

switch	See communications system.
Switched 56	DS1 Switched 56 Service is an end-to-end digital, 56-kbps,
service	full duplex, synchronous, circuit-switched service offering.
	The service is offered by network service providers and by
	some Local Exchange Carriers (LECs) as circuit-switched,
	56-kbps service.T1-emulated tandem tie trunks in a private
	network can be programmed for data.
switchhook flash	Momentary (320 ms to 1 second) on-hook signal used as a
	control; may be directed to the control unit or to a host
	switch outside the system. Also called “Recall” or “timed
	flash.”
switch identifier	A number assigned to a tandem trunk in a private network.
	It identifies the system connected to the far end of the
	trunk. Switch identifiers are based on the type of system
	and its distance from the system where the identifier is
	assigned. See also satellite system and non-satellite
	system.
synchronous data	Method of transmitting a continuous digital data stream in
transmission	which the transmission of each binary bit is synchronized
	with a master clock. See also asynchronous data
	transmission.
system	Test of all trunks, telephones, data terminals, and features
acceptance test	after installation to ensure that they are working correctly.
System Access	See SA buttons.
buttons
system date and	Date and time that appear on MLX display telephones and
time	SMDR reports.
system	Programming of system functions and features that affect
programming	most users, performed from an MLX-20L telephone or a
	computer using SPM. See also extension programming
	and centralized telephone programming.
System	See SPM.
Programming and
Maintenance
system	Procedure used to change the numbers assigned to
renumbering	telephones, adjuncts, calling groups, paging groups, park
	zones, Remote Access, and lines/trunks.
