Feature Packages
The
SLC
Series 5 Carrier System offers several feature package configurations.
The choice of feature package is determined by the bank control unit (BCU) and
alarm display unit (ADU), and supporting common units. Option settings on the
ADU also determine the feature package configuration. Feature packages are
abbreviated when referred to in text (for example FPC = Feature Package C).
The following is a summary of
SLC
Series 5 Carrier System feature packages.
■
FPA – FPA has been rated DA (discontinued availability) and provides
POTS service only.
■
FPB – FPB provides a TR-08* interface that can be universal (
SLC
96
COT),
*
integrated (TR-08 digital switch), Mode 1 or Mode 2 (
SLC

modes, unconcentrated or concentrated), and provides special services.
The service capabilities of FPB are abbreviated in text as follows:
■ FPB/[U or I] — U for universal, I for integrated
■ FPB/[U or I]/[M1 or M2]/ — M1 for Mode 1, M2 for Mode 2
