The NTAK09 circuit card conforms to safety and performance standards for
foreign and surge voltage protection in an internal environment.
foreign and surge voltage protection in an internal environment.
Architecture
Signaling interface
The signaling interface performs an 8 Kbps signaling for all 24 channels and
interfaces directly to the DS-30X link. Messages in both directions of
transmission are three bytes long.
