Note: The terminating impedance of each trunk unit is software selectable in LD 14 and should
match the nominal impedance of the connecting equipment.
Note: The balance network of each trunk unit is software selectable between resistive 600 or
900 ohms or 3COM and jumper selectable between 3COM and 3CM2. Jumper selection for
3COM/3CM2 restriction does not apply to NT8D14BB (Release 10 and later).

Port-to-port loss configuration
Loss parameters are selected on the NT8D14 Universal Trunk card by a
switchable pad controlled by codec emulation software. For convenience,
the pads settings are called "in" and "out." Pad settings are determined
by the two factors listed below (the first is under direct user control; the
second is controlled indirectly):
• Class of Service is assigned in LD 14 (under direct user control).
• Port-to-port connection loss is automatically set by software on the
basis of the port type selected in LD 16; only the port type is set by the
user (controlled indirectly).
The transmission properties of each trunk are characterized by the class of
service assigned in LD 14. Transmission properties can be Via Net Loss
(VNL) or non-Via Net Loss (non-VNL).
