Now, all we need to do is assign “area codes” to identify which matrix has which port. In actuality, in the Telex® Intelligent Trunking system, the trunk master figures out which matrix has which ports and keeps track of it for you. If you assign “ADIR” from the Studio A matrix to a panel on the Matrix for Control Room B, the system “knows” that it will have to configure and establish a trunk to allow that conversation to take place. It does so automatically, establishing the trunk, monitoring trunk usage, and releasing the trunk when the conversation is completed.
