Note 1: For CISPR B group cabinets, the active Clock Controller

cabinets, this limitation does not exist - the Clock Controller can occupy
any available slot 1-9.
Note 2: On non-ECM system cabinets, the NTAK20 can be placed in
slots 1-9. On cabinets NTAK11Dx and NTAK11Fx, the active NTAK20
must be placed in slots 1-3 (slots 4-10 cannot be used).
ATTENTION
IMPORTANT!
Each Media Gateway that has a digital trunk must use a clock controller clocked
to an external reference clock.

switch on the NTAK09, as well as an extra loadware application to handle
Layer 1, and changes to make the existing loadware files into 32 bit format
instead of the original 16 bit format. To provide CEMUX communication with
the card, changes are also required to create an I/O entry for the card. In
addition the NTRB21 has a built-in downloadable D-channel.
This card requires that the Option 11C be equipped with at least Release
24 software.
