data-line
Assigns a Data Line Data Module. The Data Line Data
Module (DLDM) screen assigns ports on the Data Line
circuit pack (DLC) that allows EIA 232C devices to
connect to the system. The DLC, with a companion
Asynchronous Data Unit (ADU), provides a less
expensive data interface to the system than other
asynchronous DCP data modules.
The DLC supports asynchronous transmissions at speeds
of Low and 300, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, and 19200 bps
over 2-pair (full-duplex) lines. These lines can have
different lengths, depending on the transmission speed and
wire gauge.
The DLC has 8 ports. The connection from the port to the
EIA device is direct, meaning that no multiplexing is
involved. A single port of the DLC is equivalent in
functionality to a data module and a digital line port. The
DLC appears as a data module to the Digital Terminal
Equipment (DTE) and as a digital line port to the switch.
The DLC connects the following EIA 232C equipment to
the system:
■ Printers
■ Non-Intelligent Data Terminals
■ Intelligent Terminals, Personal Computers (PCs)
■ Host Computers
■ Information Systems Network (ISN), RS-232C
Local Area Networks (LANs), or other data
switches.
ethernet
Assigns an Ethernet data module. The Ethernet Data
Module screen assigns the 10BaseT port on the
Control-LAN (C-Lan) circuit pack. This port provides a
TCP/IP connection to network hub or LAN. See
Administration for Network Connectivity for Avaya
MultiVantage™ Software for more information on
Ethernet data modules.
