Slot Card Specifications and Connection Information
STM-0 card
STM-0 card
The Synchronous Transport Module 0 (STM-0) card is an optical 51.85Mbps communication
circuit designed to be used with the appropriate signaling gateway. Each of its 28 T1 lines can
be configured as a Signaling System 7 (SS7) data trunk. When the STM-0 card is configured
for SS7 data trunks, the signaling gateway takes control of the data trunks, instructing the
MAX TNT unit when to establish or dismantle calls.
The STM-0 card does not support Call-Routing profiles, PRI signaling, or inband signaling.
