M3900Series Meridian Digital Telephones Description,Installation and Administration
Line engineering
TheM3900 Series Meridian Digital Telephones use twisted pair wiring on
transmission lines determined by the rules in Digital Telephone Line
Engineering(553-2201-180). The maximum acceptable loop length is 1067
m.( 3500 ft), assuming 24 AWG (0.5 mm) standard twisted wire with no
bridge taps. A 15.5 dB loss at 256 kHz defines the loop length limit. Longer
lengths are possible, depending on the wire’s gauge and insulation.

CAUTION
Useonly the line cord provided with the telephone. A line cord
designedfor another telephone can cause damage to the equipment.
