Strata CTX General Description 11/02 17
Universal Slot PCBs 4
Universal Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) installed in the Strata CTX100 or CTX670 cabinets
provide interfaces for stations, lines, and peripherals. Each PCB measures 7.5 x 5.5 inches (190 x
140 mm) and mounts in the slot with a 44-pin backplane connector. PCB external connections to
station equipment are made to the Main Distribution Frame (MDF) using industry-standard
connectors.
Station, Line and Option PCBs
The PCBs are categorized as station, CO line or option PCBs (see Tables 14~16). Feature
subassemblies that plug onto a universal slot PCB, such as the Standard Telephone Interface
Subassembly (RSTS), are listed below the associated PCB. For further details, refer to the Strata
CTX I&M Manual.
