Approval by the ACA for connection to primary rate ISDN will be held by the local subsidiary of
Aculab, is as specified in this document, subject to the conditions set out in this appendix. The
Telepermit approval is issued to Aculab’s New Zealand Representative.
Usage and Type
The E1/T1 PCI card is principally designed for use connected to a 2048 Kbps integrated services
digital network (primary rate ISDN) with TS038 signalling (Australia) and TNA134 signalling
(New Zealand).
Other types of private circuit use are also appropriate, and other signalling systems are available
or planned.
The ACA Approval is only applicable when the E1/T1 PCI card is used with Aculab supplied
signalling software appropriate for the Approval.
The filename for the software to be loaded into RAM for signalling software to connect to the
network is
ETS_SUPU.P4R
for rev 1.5 or
ETS_SUPU.UPR
for rev 2 PM’s.

Speech Calls
If the E1/T1 PCI card is used in an application that makes or answers calls with a service code
that indicates a speech or telephony call, or any call that may use a partly analogue route, there
is a requirement that audio signals transmitted are encoded using CCITT A-law PCM, and do not
exceed a 1 minute mean power level of -9dBm.
Many of the speech and FAX resource cards that may be used with the E1/T1 PCI card comply
with this requirement. It is the responsibility of the user to ensure that this requirement is
complied with, by confirmation via the manufacturer of the card, or by any other suitable means
such as independent testing.
Signal sources that do not guarantee compliance with this requirement must be conditioned by
appropriate circuitry before transmission.
