Insertion Loss from IPE Ports to IPE Ports(measured in dB)
The transmission properties of each trunk are characterized by the
class-of-service (COS) you assign in the Trunk Data Block (LD 14).
Transmissionproper ties maybe via net loss (VNL) or non via net loss
(non-VNL).
Non-VNL trunks are assigned either a TransmissionCompensated (TRC) or
Non-TransmissionCompensated (NTC) class-of-service to ensure stability
and minimize echo when connecting to long-haul trunks, such as Tie trunks.
The class-of-service determines the operation of the switchable PADs
contained in each unit. They are assigned as follows:
TransmissionCompensated
used for a two-wire non-VNL trunk facility with a loss of greater than
2 dB for which impedance compensation is provided
or used for a four-wire non-VNL facility
Non-TransmissionCompensated
used for a two-wire non-VNL trunk facility with a loss of less than 2 dB
or used when impedance compensation is not provided
Table246 "Insertion Loss from IPE Ports to IPE Ports (measured in dB)"
(page 686) shows PADsettings and the resulting port-to-port loss for
connections between the Universal Trunk Card (UTC) and any other
Intelligent Peripheral Equipment (IPE) or PeripheralEquipment (PE) unit,
denoted as Port B
