The local telephone company should have installed the network interface (the
central office trunks) already. Before you install the system, verify that the
network interface is the proper type and that it is within 25 ft. (7.6 m) of the
control unit. If the network interface is more than 25 ft. (7.6 m) from the control
unit, make sure you have an OPRE.
The adapter you need to connect the central office trunks to the control unit
depends on the type of network interface installed, as shown in Table 4-1
.
After installing the adapter, label each jack that connects a central office trunk to
the control unit with the trunk’s number. Use the list provided by the local
telephone company or System Form 2c, System Numbering: Line/Trunk Jacks
for outside trunks as a reference.
