To connect Lucent Technologies Attendant to the system, you need the following
equipment:
■
Lucent Technologies Attendant unit
■
A 6-wire modular telephone cord
■
A 012 module (and ring generator, if the module has the apparatus code
517F13). Current 012 modules [apparatus code 517G13 (28) or
higher-letter or lower letter] include a built-in ring generator and work with
all releases of the system.
NOTE:
The system may require additional TTRs to allow a 012 or 016
module to handle a large number of voice connections. Two TTRs
are provided on the 012 module and four are provided on the 016
module. For guidelines on TTR needs, see
.
The number of Lucent Technologies Attendants that the system requires depends
on the number of incoming lines/trunks and the number of busy-hour calls. One is
normally sufficient for handling after-hours calls only and for delayed (secondary)
call handling.
