Assigning Extension Jacks 5
Following some guidelines about digital extension jacks, this section contains
procedures to plan extension jack connections for the following:
■ Modem data-only stations
■ ISDN terminal adapter data-only stations
■ Local host computer data stations
■ LAN workstations
■ Video systems (personal or group)
For each type of data station, planning how the data equipment connects to
extension jacks on the control unit involves the following tasks:
1. Review Form 2a, on which you entered codes (A for analog, D for digital,
and B for basic telephone) and find the telephone type and the user,
location, or function for each data station to be connected. Table 5–4
lists
extension jack types, the corresponding module types, and the equipment
that can be connected.
2. Add the extension jack assignments to Form 2a.
Table 5–4. Extension Jack Types
Before you assign extension jacks for ISDN terminal adapter data stations, review
the guidelines in the next section, “Guidelines for Digital Extension Jacks.”
