2/4-Wire Special Services (SS 2/4) Plug-in Card
The Tellabs 1000 MSAP 2/4-Wire Special Services plug-in card (SS 2/4) offers a multitude of 2-wire and 4-wire nonlocally switched and nonswitched intra-LATA voice and data services. These include Foreign Exchange (FXS) and long-distance lines, WATS, 800, Centrex, secretarial and off-premises extension lines as well as two-point and multipoint private line services. The SS 2/4 card supports two circuits. Each circuit on the SS 2/4 card can be used as a 2-wire or 4-wire circuit. The card supports FXS, Foreign Exchange Office (FXO), Direct Inward Dialing (DID), Equalized Transmission Only (ETO) Private Branch eXchange (PBX) and Private Line, Automatic Ringdown (PLAR) functionality.

Features and Benefits

  • Two circuits per card, each able to support 2- or 4-wire operation
  • 2- or 4-wire FXO
  • 2- and 4-wire FXS
  • 2- and 4-wire ETO
  • 2- and 4-wire PLAR
  • 2- and 4-wire DID
  • Equalization
  • Gain transfer
  • Normal or reverse simplex
  • Loop start or ground start

Included Highlights

More Choices

Also available in the 4-wire mode is selectable normal or reversed simplex signaling. In both 2-wire and 4-wire interfaces,provisionable wide-range gain/attenuation settings are provided. For ETO mode, both sourcing or sinking sealing current options are available when sealing current is required. The SS 2/4 card is not software upgradeable.

Signaling Modes

For all signaling modes, the Tellabs 1000 MSAP SS 2/4 plug-in card supports full equalization for 2-wire interfaces and built-in precision balancing with each equalization setting for echo cancellation over any loop. For 4-wire interfaces, post-equalization (transmit direction only) is provided. These equalization settings are available via provisionable selections for different cable configurations. Passive mismatch equalization is also available in the 4-wire mode, via selectable 150 ohm/600 ohm settings, for both transmit and receive directions.

POTS services

Connecting POTS telephones to a computer telephony system via T-1 links requires a channel bank configured with FX-type connections. Generating a call from the POTS set to the computer telephony system requires a configured FXO connection. Generating a call from the computer telephony system to the POTS set requires a configured FXS connection.

FXO and FXS services

FXO or FXS service can be ordered from telcom service providers outside the subscriber’s exchange area. With this service, a user can pick up a phone in one city and receive a dial tone and a local number from a “foreign” city. FX trunks provide the connection. Analog or T-1 links transport the signal.

Specifications

Equalization
  • Mixed gauges are allowed with any combination. All loops longer than 18,000 ft must use H-88 loading. Loaded cable: Only H-88 loading is supported. Gauges of 19, 22, 24, and 26 are supported, including any gauge combinations. Maximum customer end section length including bridge taps is 9000 ft for 2-wire and 15,000 ft for 4-wire (from last load coil). No bridge taps are allowed in (or between) the loaded sections.
  • Supported cable facilities - Nonloaded cable: 19, 22, 24 and 26 gauges are supported up to 18,000 ft, including bridge taps. Maximum bridge tap length is limited to 6000 ft for 2-wire and 12,000 ft for 4-wire.
  • Supported cable configurations - 2-wire and 4-wire Terminal interface: up to 3,000 feet of intraoffice cable, but = 1.5 dB 1 kHz loss – 2-wire and 4-wire cable interface: maximum cable length is limited to 10 dB 1 kHz loss or 1600 ohms DC cable resistance.
  • Meets GR-57-CORE requirements for attenuation distortion for supported cable configurations – 2-wire cable mode: active equalization provided in both directions of transmission – 4-wire cable mode: active postequalization in transmit direction. Passive equalization using 150 ohm mismatch also provided.
