Physical characteristics
In Option 11C systems the NT8D15 E&M Trunk Card is installed in slots 1
through 10 of the Main cabinet, or in slots 11 through 50 of the Expansion
cabinets.
In Option 11C systems equipped with Meridian Mail, the Universal Trunk
line card cannot be installed in slot 10 of the main cabinet.
Each card provides four circuits. Each circuit connects with the switching
system and with the external apparatus by an 80-pin connector at the rear of
the pack.
Each trunk circuit on the card connects to trunk facilities by tip an ring leads
which carry voice, ringing, tone signaling and battery. Trunk option selection
is determined by software control in LD 14.

The optional applications, features and signaling arrangements for each trunk
are assigned through unique route and trunk data blocks. Refer to the
