System Release 6.1 cPCI for Windows Release Guide — May 2006 16
Media LAN disconnection alarm
Software alarm to notify IPML and Global Call (via GCAMS) applications if the board's
media LAN connection is lost (due to cable disconnection, for example) and when it is
restored.
3.4 New Features for Intel NetStructure DMN160TEC
and DMT160TEC Products
The Intel NetStructure
®
DMN160TEC and DMT160TEC digital telephony interface boards
provide a high-density network interface on a CompactPCI* form factor. Supporting up to
16 spans or 480 ports, they are software-selectable as T1, E1, or a combination, on the
same board with the ability to run multiple ISDN protocols (and on the DMT160TEC,
multiple ISDN or CAS protocols) simultaneously (in units of four). The DMT160TEC board
includes support for all of the DMN160TEC features plus CAS protocols, DTMF
detection/generation, call progress analysis and network tone signaling and control.
New Features
System Release 6.1 cPCI for Windows introduces the following new features on the
DMN160TEC and DMT160TEC products:
ISDN network-side E1 and T1 protocol support
Support for ISDN network-side protocols in accordance with ITU specifications. Refer
to the Global Call ISDN Technology Guide for more information.
Trunk preconditioning
The ability to send an alarm state to the network at all times from powerup to
application startup. Refer to the DM3 Configuration Guide for more information.
Support for mixed ISDN, CAS and Clear Channel on trunk by trunk basis
The DCM Trunk Configuration property sheet now allows you to configure individual
trunks on the same board with different protocols, including: ISDN, CAS
(DMT160TEC only), or Clear Channel signaling. Refer to the DM3 Configuration
Guide for more information.
Note: CAS and R2MF protocols are only supported on the DMT160TEC board. The
DMN160TEC board does not support these protocols.
Dynamic protocol selection
Allows changes on a trunk-by-trunk basis within selected front-end configurations (T1
or E1). For example, if a trunk is configured for E1 at download, a user can change
that trunk to a different variant of the same E1 call control signaling protocol during
runtime, for example, ISDN QSIG to ISDN NET5. Changes from one E1 call control
signaling protocol to another E1 call control signaling protocol, for example, ISDN to
R2MF or vice-versa are not supported. Changes to/from Clear Channel or NFAS are
also excluded. Refer to the Global Call ISDN Technology Guide and the Global Call
