Overview

The IBM Quad Digital Trunk Telephony PCI Adapter and IBM Quad Digital Trunk Telephony PCI Blind Swap Adapter are highly integrated, intelligent I/O adapters for use in computer telephony applications. The adapters are four-port, full-length, universal PCI 2.2-compliant adapters. They perform voice processing for up to four T1 or E1 digital trunks, providing connectivity for 96 T1 or 120 E1 voice channels in a single PCI slot.

Each adapter is made up of two separate cards - a base card that interfaces with the host system and performs telephony processing functions, and a daughter card that provides the physical interface to the switch. The voice processing function is provided by WebSphere® Voice Response for AIX® LPP with Direct Talk Technology.

Network attachment cables using the industry-standard RJ-48 connector can be obtained from cable suppliers in a variety of lengths to suit the particular installation. For additional information about these cables, refer to the adapter's installation and user's guide.
