netcon
Assigns a Netcon Data Module. Netcon data modules are the
Processor Data Modules (PDMs) that are integrated into the
system’s network control ports that provide asynchronous
circuit switched interfaces to the maintenance and
administration terminals, Hospitality journal printers, and CDR
digital output. They are characterized by their special locations,
that is, special port identifications.
NOTE:
The Netcon data module is only applicable to G3si
configurations. For G3r and later configurations, use the
system-port command.
pdm
Assigns a DCE interface for Processor/Trunk Data Modules.
These screens assign Modular Processor Data Modules
(MPDMs) and Modular Trunk Data Modules (MTDMs). One
screen is required for assigning MPDMs (700D), 7400B,
7400D or 8400B Data Module, and another screen for MTDMs
(700B, 700C, 700E, 7400A). One screen must be completed
for each MPDM, 7400B, 7400D, 8400B or MTDM.
The MPDM, 7400B, or 8400B Data Module provides a Data
Communications Equipment (DCE) interface for connection to
equipment such as data terminals, CDR output devices,
on-premises administration terminal, Message Server, Property
Management System (PMS), AUDIX, and host computers. It
also provides a Digital Communications Protocol (DCP)
interface to the digital switch. (DCE is the equipment on the
network side of a communications link that provides all the
functions required to make the binary serial data from the
source or transmitter compatible with the communications
channel.)
The MTDM provides an Electronic Industries Association
(EIA) Data Terminal Equipment (DTE) interface for
connection to off-premises private line trunk facilities or a
switched telecommunications network and a DCP interface for
connection to the digital switch. (DTE is the equipment
comprising the endpoints in a connection over a data circuit.
For example, in a connection between a data terminal and a
host computer, the terminal, the host, and their associated
modems or data modules make up the DTE.) The MTDM or
7400A Data Module also can serve as part of a conversion
resource for Combined Modem Pooling.
