Architecture 943
The NTAK79has an onboard D-Channel Handler Interface (DCHI). It is the
equivalent to a single port of an NTAK02SDI/DCH pack. This enables for
a completely operational ISDN PRA link with clock synchronization and
D-channel on a single circuit card.
The onboard D-channel has one status LED on the NTAK79 faceplateto
indicate enabled/disabled states. See Table 376 "NTAK79LEDs" (page
924).
The on-board DCHI can be operated in two separate modes as defined by
an on-board dip switch. It can operate in a standard DCHI mode common
to most ISDN standard countries. The U.K. specific mode that uses the
DPNSS format is not supported at this time.

DCHI
The D-channel support interface is a 64 kbps, full-duplex serial bit stream
configured as a DCE device. The data signals include: (1) Receive data
output, (2) transmit data input, (3) receiveclock output, and (4) transmit clock
output. The receive and transmit clocks can be of slightly different bit rates
from each other as determined by the transmit and receive carrier clocks.
