PRI (1PRIU) Interface PCB (Figure 2-16)
For ISDN Primary Rate Interface (PRI) applications, install a PRI Interface PCB. This PCB has a sin-
gle 32-channel (30B plus 2D) 2.048Mb/s digital signal circuit which can be configured for either PRI
trunks or PRI S-Bus. Each PCB connects to the network via an NTI Network Termination.
If set for PRI trunks, each PCB provides 30 PRI channels. The PCB supports the following PRI services:
When installed, the PRI Interface PCB uses the first block of 32 consecutive trunks. For example, if you
have a COIU PCB installed for trunks 1-8, the PRI Interface PCB will automatically use trunks 9-40. If
you have COIU PCBs installed for trunks 1-8 and 17-24, the PRI PCB will use trunks 25-56. The PRI
Interface PCB cannot use trunks 9-16 (even if available) since they are not part of a consecutive block of
32 trunks.
The PRI PCB requires one universal slot and provides a Block switch to busy out the PCB. When used
for T-Bus, up to 6 PCBs can be installed in the system (total 192 trunk ports). When used as S-Bus, up
to 8 PCBs can be installed (total 256 extension ports).
