3.6.2.1.1 TDM
This block interfaces the TDM bus by receiving and transmitting the traffic
(nxE1) and DCN channels (nx64 kbit/s).
3.6.2.1.2 Control and Supervision
This block interfaces the PCI bus and handles control and supervision. Its
main functions are to collect alarms, control settings and tests. The block
communicates with the NPU over the PCI bus.
The block holds a Device Processor (DP) running plug-in unit specific software.
3.6.2.1.3 SPI
This block interfaces the SPI bus and handles equipment status. Failure is
indicated by LED’s on the front of the unit.
