INSTRUCTIONS 

1. 

Intent & Scope 

This document describes the installation procedure for the ACB-100 Audio Control Board. 

2. Description 

The ACB-100 Audio Control Board controls all the I/O cards in a MicroComm DXI card cage. It controls the 
system’s audio switching and includes the system’s digital signal processors. Audio trunking between card 
cages, which may be linked to form larger exchanges, is also made through the ACB. 

Each audio control board may include up to two Digital Signal Processors (DSP) expansion modules. Each 
expansion module provides two more DSPs. These DSPs are used to support additional I/O cards and special 
functions such as Audio Level Alarms and conference calls. Digital audio trunk (CEPT) interfaces are available 
for fiber optic and copper conductor networks 

An Audio Control Board (ACB-100) must be located in the first card slot of each card cage.
