Functional description 513
The digital line card passes voice, data, and signaling over DS-30X loops
and maintenance data over the card LAN link. These interfaces are
discussed in detail in the section "Intelligent Peripheral Equipment" (page
21).
The NT8D02 Digital Line Card passes voice, data, and signaling over
DS-30X loops, and maintenance data over the card LAN link.
Digital line interfaces
The digital line interface contains two Digital Line Interface Circuits (DLIC).
Each digital line interface circuit provides eight identical, individually
configurable voiceand data interfaces to eight digital telephone lines. These
lines carry multiplexed PCM voice,data, and signaling information as TCM
loops.
The purpose of each digital line interface circuit is to de-multiplex data from
the DS-30X Tx channel into eight integrated voice and data bitstreams. The
circuits then transmit those bitstreams as Bi-Polar Return to Zero, Alternate
Mark Inversion (BPRZ-AMI) data to the eight TCM loops. They also perform
the opposite action: they receive eight BPRZ-AMI bitstreams from the TCM
loops and multiplex them onto the DS-30X Rx channel. The two digital line
interface circuits perform the multiplexing and de-multiplexingfunctions for
the 16 digital telephone lines.
