Chapter 1 — Introducing the Option 11C Mini

This chapter provides an overview of the Option 11C Mini system.

Option 11C Mini system description

The Option 11C Mini is a small communications system based on existing Option 11C technology. The system provides full Meridian 1 feature functionality. The Option 11C Mini uses X11 global software which other Meridian 1 systems also use.

In an Option 11C Mini system, the Main Chassis can connect to a Chassis Expander. This increases line size to 144 lines. Two copper cables connect the Chassis Expander to the Main Chassis.

The Main Chassis and Chassis Expander each provide four Intelligent Peripheral Equipment (IPE) card slots. These card slots support line cards, trunk cards, and application cards used in other Meridian 1 systems. The Option 11C Mini introduces a 48-port Digital Line Card (NTDK16). You must insert the 48-port Digital Line Card in a dedicated slot (Slot 4) of the Main Chassis. The Main Chassis also provides a dedicated slot (slot 0) for the Mini System Controller (MSC) card.

A processor located on the Mini System Controller (MSC) card in the Main Chassis handles call processing, serial ports, and network traffic. Call processing on the MSC card is equivalent to that on the Option 11C Small System Controller (SSC) card. Use the MSC card for configurations with up to 144 lines.

The power supply for the Option 11C Mini is installed in the chassis before it is sent to the customer site. You do not have to install the power supply during system installation.
