Platform Requirements 62
To connect Lucent Technologies Attendant to the system, you need the following
equipment:
â– Lucent Technologies Attendant unit
â– A 6-wire modular telephone cord
â– A 012 module (and ring generator, if the module has the apparatus code
517F13). Current 012 modules [apparatus code 517G13 (28) or
higher-letter or lower letter] include a built-in ring generator and work with
all releases of the system.
NOTE:
The system may require additional TTRs to allow a 012 or 016 (T/R)
module to handle a large number of voice connections. Two TTRs
are provided on the 012 module and four are provided on the
016 (T/R) module. For guidelines on TTR needs, see Table 62, page
I–19.
The number of Lucent Technologies Attendants that the system requires depends
on the number of incoming lines/trunks and the number of busy-hour calls. One is
normally sufficient for handling after-hours calls only and for delayed (secondary)
call handling. Table 63
shows the requirements when you program Lucent
Technologies Attendant for primary (immediate) call handling.
