T1 Trunking (with ANI/DNIS Compatibility)
Description
The T1/PRI Interface PCB gives the system T1 trunking capability. This PCB uses a single univer-
sal slot and provides up to 24 trunk circuits. In additional to providing digital-quality trunking, the
T1/PRI Interface PCB allows you to have maximum trunking capability with fewer PCBs. This in
turn makes more universal slots available for other functions.
You can program each T1/PRI PCB for any combination of the following trunks:
●CO loop start
●CO ground start
●Direct Inward Dialing
●Tie lines 1
The T1/PRI Interface PCB uses the first block of 24 consecutive trunks. For example, if you have
an 8COIU PCB installed for trunks 1-8, the T1/PRI Interface PCB will automatically use trunks 9-
32. If you have 8COIU PCBs installed for trunks 1-8 and 17-24, the T1/PRI PCB will use trunks
25-48. The T1/PRI Interface cannot use trunks 9-16 (even if available) since they are not part of a
consecutive block of 24 trunks. Each T1/PRI PCB requires that 24 consecutive ports be available in
the system even if not all the ports will be used otherwise the PCB will not function.
ANI/DNIS Compatibility
The system is compatible with telco’s T1 Automatic Number Identification (ANI) and Dialed
Number Information Service (DNIS) services. This is only for T1 - not for PRI at this time). A
compliment to Caller ID service, ANI/DNIS Compatibility provides:
●Selectable Receive Format
You can set up the system for compatibility with any combination of ANI, DNIS and Dialed
Number (Address) data provided by the telco.
●Flexible Routing
Based on the data received, the system can route the incoming ANI/DNIS call to:
- An extension
- An ACD or Voice Mail master extension number
- The VRS and play a VRS message to the caller.
- A Department Group pilot number
- A trunk Ring Group
●Route According to DID Translation Table or Abbreviated Dial Bins
Calls can be routed based on either the number of digits defined in Program 22-09-01 (digits
1-8) or by digits entered in Abbreviated Dial bins in Program 13-04-01.
●ANI/DNIS Data Displayed as Caller ID Data
●Data Error and Unanswered Call Handling
If a call can’t be completed, send it to a predetermined Ring Group or play supervisory tones
to the caller.
