Add ISDN-PRI
T1 (North American standard)
This procedure describes adding a T1 line.
1 Use a TN767F or TN767E (or later version) circuit pack to set up an ISDN PRI trunk. Ensure that
the dip switch on the circuit pack is set for 24 channels. If you are using Facility Associated
Signaling (FAS), 23 channels are available to be used as trunk group members. Channel 24 must
be used to create a signaling group for the trunk groups. If you are using Non Facility Associated
Signaling (NFAS), it is possible, in some instances, to use all 24 channels for trunk group
members.
2 To create a PRI trunk:
a Enter ADD DS1 (circuit pack location) at the SAT terminal session.
b Enter the required information on the DS1 form.
c Create a signaling group using the ADD SIG NEXT command. If you are using FAS
signaling, use the 24
th
channel on your DS1 circuit pack as the D channel for your
signaling group. If you are using NFAS signaling, enter N in the associated signaling field.
List the trunk circuit pack location in the Trunk Board field.
d Create a trunk group by using the ADD TRUNK NEXT command:
1 Complete the required information on the Trunk Group form’s pages.
2 Enter the port locations of the trunk members on the Trunk Group Member page.
3 Enter the correct signaling group number.
E1 (international standard)
1 Use a TN464F circuit pack. Ensure that the dip switch on the circuit pack is set for 30 channels
(E-1). If you are using Facility Associated Signaling (FAS), 29 channels are available to be used
as trunk group members. Channel 16 must be used to create a signaling group for the trunk
groups. If you are using Non Facility Associated Signaling (NFAS), it is possible to use all 30
channels for trunk group members in some instances.
2 To create a trunk group, do the following:
a Determine the slot assignment of the circuit packs to be added.
b Install the DS1 Interface circuit pack in the assigned carrier slot.
c Enter ADD DS1 (circuit pack location) at the SAT terminal session.
d Enter the required information on the DS1 form.
e Create a signaling group using the ADD SIG NEXT command. If you are using FAS
signaling, use the 16
th
channel on your DS1 circuit pack as the D channel for your
signaling group. If you are using NFAS signaling, enter N in the associated signaling field.
List the trunk circuit pack location in the Trunk Board field.
f Create a trunk group by using the ADD TRUNK NEXT command:
1 Complete the required information on the Trunk Group form’s pages.
2 Enter the port locations of the trunk members on the Trunk Group Member page.
3 Enter the correct signaling group number.
