Prosody X PCI Express R1 Card – Installation Guide
NOTE
The SIC determines the type of call being made, and the type of terminal
equipment that may terminate the call.
ETS functionality
•
Call initiation using ETS300-102 signaling
•
Call clearing using ETS300-102 signaling
•
Call answering using ETS300-102 signaling
•
Host independent installation
•
Application program generated by the user
•
Independent Operation of the network interfaces (one or more interfaces
attached to the network)
•
Operational code running from RAM
Speech calls
If the 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 G.711
A-law PCM.
Many of the speech and FAX resource cards that may be used with the 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 in themselves guarantee compliance with this requirement
must be conditioned by appropriate circuitry before transmission.
Card installation & connection safety warnings
Interconnection circuits should be such that the equipment continues to comply with
the requirements of 2.3 of EN60950 for SELV circuits, after making connections
between circuits using any of the electrical interfaces.
The host PC into which the Prosody X PCI Express card is fitted is classed as an
indirect attachment. The PCI Express bus connector provides an interconnection
circuit between the host PC and the Prosody X PCI Express card. Similarly,
equipment connected to the Prosody X PCI Express card H.100 CT bus are also
classed as indirect attachments.
Installation and safety
The card must be installed such that, with the exception of the PCI Express and
H.100 bus connections, clearance and creepage distances shown in the table below
are maintained between the Prosody X PCI Express card and any parts of the host
PC or other expansion cards which use or generate a voltage, shown in the following
table below.
