Lineside T1 interface connection to peripheral equipment

For example, the Lineside T1 card can be used to connect the Meridian 1
to a T1-compatible VRU. An example of this type of equipment is Nortel
Networks Open IVR system. In this way, the Meridian 1 can send a call to
the VRU. Because the Lineside T1 card supports analog (500/2500-type)
telephones, the VRU is able to send the call back to the Meridian 1 for
further handling.

The Lineside T1 card can also be used to provide off-premise extensions
to remote locations (up to 500 miles from the Meridian 1 system). In
this application, the analog telephone functionality is extended over T1
facilities, providing a telephone at a remote site with access to analog
(500/2500-type) telephone lines. See

Figure 52 "Lineside T1 interface in

off-premise application" (page 252)

. An audible message-waiting indicator

can be provided as well.
