Voice and signaling interfaces
The eight line interfaces provided by the NT1R20 OPS analog line card
connect to conventional, 2-wire (tip and ring), analog line facilities.
Incoming analog voice and signaling information from a line facility is
converted by the OPS analog line card to digital form and routed to the
CPU over DS-30 network loops. Conversely, digital voice and signaling
information from the CPU is sent over DS-30 network loops to the OPS
analog line card where it is converted to analog form and applied to the
line facility.
The OPS analog line card uses only eight of the 30 available timeslots for
its eight line interfaces. The OPS analog line card can be configured in
software to format PCM data in the µ-law or A-law conventions.

Maintenance communication
Maintenance communication is the exchange of control and status data
between line or trunk cards and the CPU. Maintenance data is transported
through the card LAN link.
