 NTAK79 2.0 Mb PRI card
Note: Clocking slips can occur between MG 1000S systems that are 
clocked from different Central Offices (COs) if the COs are not 
synchronized. The slips can degrade voice quality.
Physical description
The NTAK79 uses a standard 9.5" by 12.5" multi-layer printed circuit board. 
The faceplate is 7/8” wide. The NTAK79 circuit card has a total of seven 
faceplate LEDs. Five of the LEDs are directly associated with the operation 
of the Primary Rate interface (PRI). The remaining two LEDs are associated 
with the on-board Clock Controller and the on-board D-channel interface 
(DCHI). The LEDs are described in Table 239.
IMPORTANT!
Each MG 1000S that has a digital trunk must have a clock controller 
clocked to an external reference clock.
