Introduction
OCTAL AND QUAD FXO MODULES OVERVIEW
The Octal and Quad FXO Modules are for use in the ATLAS 550 family of
products in applications that require analog phone interfaces. Potential
applications include termination of analog PSTN trunks and connections to
PBX station-side interfaces (OPX). The Octal and Quad FXO Modules
support loop-start and ground-start operation.
Functional Description
The Octal and Quad FXO Modules install in any available option slot in the
ATLAS 550 chassis. Status information is available via the terminal menus,
accessible through either a VT-100 terminal connected to the ATLAS 550
