ONFIGURATIONS
There are two families of SmartSwitch Remote Access Modules: the 9W006 modules for countries
using T1 lines, and the 9W007 modules for countries using E1 lines. Each module family consists
of three possible configurations for remote access connectivity. We summarize the possible
configurations for each module family below.
The 9W006 module configured for T1 countries and is available in the following configurations:
•
9W006-200
This model provides an interface for two ISDN PRI or T1 lines (either unchannelized or
channelized) supporting up to 46 or 48 connections.
•
9W006-400
This model provides an interface for four ISDN PRI or T1 lines (either unchannelized or
channelized) supporting up to 92 or 96 connections.
•
9W006-220
This model provides an interface for two PRI or T1 lines (channelized), and two digital modems
(24-port) supporting up to 46 or 48 digital or analog connections.
The 9W007 module is configured for E1 countries and is available in the following configurations:
•
9W007-200
This model provides an interface for two ISDN PRI or E1 lines (either unchannelized or
channelized) supporting up to 60 connections.
