Following some guidelines about digital extension jacks, this section contains procedures to plan extension jack connections for the following:

■Modem data-only stations

■ISDN terminal adapter data-only stations

■Local host computer data stations

■LAN workstations

■Video systems (personal or group)

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. Table 5–4 lists extension jack types, the corresponding module types, and the equipment that can be connected.

2.Add the extension jack assignments to Form 2a.

Table 5–4. Extension Jack Types

Jack Type	Module Type		Connects
Analog	008		Analog multiline telephones (including analog voice-and-data stations
	408		with a modem connected through a GPA)
	408 GS/LS
Digital	008	MLX	MLX telephones (including MLX voice-modem data stations)
	408	GS/LS-MLX	MLX telephones (including MLX voice and ISDN terminal adapter
			stations)
			ISDN terminal adapter data terminals (such as PCs)
			Video systems (personal or group)
Basic	012		T/R equipment:
	016		Single-line telephones
			Adjuncts, such as fax or answering machines
			Modem data-only stations
	008	OPT	Tip/ring equipment in another building or offsite

Before you assign extension jacks for ISDN terminal adapter data stations, review the guidelines in the next section, “Guidelines for Digital Extension Jacks.”
