TA 544 User Manual
Appendix H. RFC1483 Quick Start (Bridging)
The TA 544 allows for complete integration of voice and data delivery from one compact platform. Once you have
completed the voice turn up procedure from the previous example, adding data to the circuit requires some additional
setup.
To configure a TA 544 for Bridging, you need to know the VPI and VCI values for the data circuit on your network.
