Overview Page 27 of 894
NT1R20 Off-Premise Station Analog Line card
The NT1R20 Off-Premise Station (OPS) Analog Line card is an intelligent
eight-channel analog line card designed to be used with 2-wire analog
terminal equipment such as analog (500/2500-type) telephones and analog
modems. Each line has integral hazardous and surge voltage protection to
protect the system from damage due to lightning strikes and accidental power
line connections. This card is normally used whenever the phone lines have
to leave the building in which the switch is installed. The OPS line card
supports message waiting notification by interrupting the dial tone when the
receiver is first picked up. It also provides battery reversal answer and
disconnect analog line supervision and hook flash disconnect analog line
supervision features.
NT5D11 lineside T1 interface card
The NT5D11 lineside T1 Interface card is an intelligent 24-channel digital
line card that is used to connect the switch to T1 compatible terminal
equipment on the lineside. T1 compatible terminal equipment includes voice
mail systems, channel banks containing FXS cards, and key systems such as
the Nortel Networks Norstar. The lineside T1 card differs from trunk T1 cards
in that it supports terminal equipment features such as hook-flash, transfer,
hold, and conference. It emulates an analog line card to the system software.
NT5D33 and NT5D34 Lineside E1 Interface card
The NT5D33/34 Lineside E1 Interface card is an intelligent 30-channel
digital line card that is used to connect the switch to E1 compatible terminal
equipment on the lineside. E1 compatible terminal equipment includes voice
mail systems. The lineside E1 card emulates an analog line card to the system
software.
NT8D02 digital line card
The NT8D02 Digital Line card is an intelligent 16-channel digital line card
that provides voice and data communication links between a CS 1000S,
CS 1000M, and Meridian 1 switch and modular digital telephones. Each of
the 16 channels support voice-only or simultaneous voice and data service
over a single twisted pair of standard telephone wire.

Page 28 of 894 Overview
NT8D09 analog message waiting line card
The NT8D09 Analog Message Waiting Line card is an intelligent 16-channel
analog line card designed to be used with 2-wire terminal equipment such as
analog (500/2500-type) telephones, modems, and key systems. This card can
also provide a high-voltage, low-current signal on the Tip and Ring pair of
each line to light the message waiting lamp on phones equipped with that
feature.
Installation
This section provides a high-level description of how to install and test line
cards.
IPE line cards can be installed in any slot of the NT8D37 IPE module.
Figure 1 shows where an IPE line card can be installed in an NT8D37 IPE
module.

When installing line cards, follow these general procedures:
• Configure the jumpers and switches on the line card (if any) to meet
• Install the line card into the selected slot.
• Install the cable that connects the backplane connector on the IPE
• Connect a 25-pair cable from the module I/O panel connector to the Main

This section describes how line cards fit into the CS 1000S, CS 1000M, and
Meridian 1 architecture, the busses that carry signals to and from the line
cards, and how they connect to terminal equipment. These differences are
summarized in Table 2 on page 30.
Host interface bus
Cards based on the IPE bus have a built-in microcontroller. The IPE
microcontroller is used to do the following:
• perform local diagnostics (self-test)
Circuit Card Description and Installation
Page 30 of 894 Overview
• configure the card according to instructions issued by the system
• report back to the system information such as card identification (type,
vintage, and serial number), firmware version, and programmed
configuration status)

IPE line cards all have a similar architecture. Figure 2 on page 32 shows a
typical IPE line card architecture. The various line cards differ only in the
number and types of line interface units.
The switch communicates with IPE modules over two separate interfaces.
Voice and signaling data are sent and received over DS-30X loops, and
maintenance data is sent over a separate asynchronous communication link
called the card LAN link.
Signaling data is information directly related to the operation of the telephone
line. Some examples of signaling commands include:
• off-hook/on-hook
