FCC regulations require that the following information be provided in this manual to the
customer:
1. This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules. The required label is affixed to the bottom
of the chassis.
2. An FCC-compliant telephone cord and modular plug is provided with this equipment. This equip-
ment is designed to be connected to the telephone network or premises wiring using a compatible
modular jack which is Part 68-compliant. See Chapter 2, Installation, for details.
3. If your telephone equipment (Quad T1/PRI Module) causes harm to the telephone network, the
telephone company may discontinue your service temporarily. If possible, they will notify you in
advance. But if advance notice isn’t practical, you will be notified as soon as possible. You will be
advised of your right to file a complaint with the FCC.
4. Your telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment, operations, or procedures
that could affect the proper operation of your equipment. If they do, you will be given advance no-
tice to give you an opportunity to maintain uninterrupted service.
5. If you experience trouble with this equipment (Quad T1/PRI Module), please contact ADTRAN at
[phone] for repair/warranty information. The telephone company may ask you to discon-
nect this equipment from the network until the problem has been corrected or until you are sure
the equipment is not malfunctioning.
6. This unit contains no user-serviceable parts.
7. The following information may be required when applying to your local telephone company for
leased line facilities.
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Radio Frequency Interference Statement
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pur-
suant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against
harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment
generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance
with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio frequencies. Operation of this
equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be re-
quired to correct the interference at his own expense.
Shielded cables must be used with this unit to ensure compliance with Class A FCC limits.

Affidavit Requirements for Connection to Digital Services
• An affidavit is required tobe given to the telephone company whenever digital terminal equipment
without encoded analog content and billing protection is used to transmit digital signals containing
encoded analog content which are intended for eventual conversion into voiceband analog signals
and transmitted on the network.
• The affidavit shall affirm that either no encoded analog content or billing information is being
transmitted or that the output of the device meets Part 68 encoded analog content or billing protec-
tion specifications.
• End user/customer will be responsible for filing an affidavit with the local exchange carrier when

Canadian Equipment Limitations
Before installing this equipment, users should ensure that it is permissible to be connected to the facil-
ities of the local telecommunications company. The equipment must also be installed using an accept-
able method of connection. In some cases, the company's inside wiring associated with a single line
individual service may be extended by means of a certified connector assembly (telephone extension
cord). The customer should be aware that compliance with the above conditions may not prevent deg-
radation of service in some situations.
Repairs to certified equipment should be made by an authorized Canadian maintenance facility desig-
nated by the supplier. Any repairs or alterations made by the user to this equipment, or equipment mal-
functions, may give the telecommunications company cause to request the user to disconnect the
equipment.
Users should ensure for theirown protection that the electrical ground connections of thepower utility,
telephone lines and internal metallic waterpipe system, if present, are connected together. This precau-
tion may be particularly important in rural areas.
The Load Number (LN) assigned to each terminal device denotes the percentage of the total load to be
connected to a telephone loop which is used by the device, to prevent overloading. The termination on
a loop may consist of any combination of devices subject only to the equipment that the total of the LNs
of all devices does not exceed 100.
The ringer equivalence number (REN) assigned to each terminal adapter is used to determine the total
number of devices that may be connected to each circuit. The sum of the RENs from all devices in the
circuit should not exceed a total of 5.0.
Warranty and Customer Service
ADTRAN will replace or repair this product within five years from the date of shipment if the product
does not meet its published specification, or if it fails while in service. For detailed warranty, repair, and
return information, refer to the ADTRAN Equipment Warranty and Repair and Return Policy Proce-
dure (see the last page of this manual).
A return material authorization (RMA) is required prior to returning equipment to ADTRAN.
For service, RMA requests, or more information, see the last page of this manual for the toll-free contact
number.
The Industry Canada Certification label identifies certified equipment. This certification means
that the equipment meets certain telecommunications network protective, operational, and safety
requirements. The Department of Commerce does not guarantee the equipment will operate to the
user's satisfaction.
Users should not attempt to make such connections themselves, but should contact the appropriate
electric inspection authority, or an electrician, as appropriate.

Chapter 1 Introduction
QUAD T1/PRI MODULE OVERVIEW
The Quad T1/PRI Module (P/N 1200185L3) is a member of the ATLAS fam-
ily of integrated access products and provides four channelized T1 or Prima-
ry Rate ISDN (PRI) interfaces. Each interface can operate independently in
DS-1 or DSX-1 mode, and any port can serve as the primary or backup tim-
ing source for the entire system.
The Quad T1/PRI Module combines with the ATLAS Base Unit and other
ATLAS modules to support requirements calling for multiple T1 and/or PRI
circuits. You can install into the system as many Quad T1/PRI Modules as
can be physically accommodated in the ATLAS chassis.
Typical applications calling for ATLAS and the Quad T1/PRI Module in-
clude the following:
• Digital Access Cross Connect System (DACS). Any DS0 on any T1 cir-
cuit can be switched to any other DS0 on any other T1 circuit.
• T1 Bandwidth Management. T1 circuits carrying voice, data, video, and
other traffic can have their payload groomed and directed to the appro-
priate interface inside the ATLAS system (see Figure 1-1).
• ISDN Access Switch. When combined with the Octal BRI/U Module
(P/N 1200186L1, L2), the Quad T1/PRI Module can combine multiple Ba-
sic Rate ISDN (BRI) circuits onto one or more Primary Rate ISDN (PRI) cir-
cuits.

NEBS COMPLIANCE
The ATLAS Quad T1/PRI Module (P/N 1200185L3) complies with the
NEBS (Network Equipment Building System) Level III specification for
GR-1089-CORE and GR-63-CORE. This means that the ATLAS Quad T1/
PRI Module will perform normally under certain electrical and physical
stresses without posing a safety hazard to its users. This module can be used
ineither theATLAS 800orthe ATLAS800PLUS. However,when applications
require NEBS compliance, this module should be used in the
ATLAS 810PLUS (a NEBS-compliant version of the ATLAS 800PLUS).
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The Quad T1/PRI Module installs into any available option slot in the
ATLAS chassis. You can view the status of the module itself, as well as the
circuits to which it interfaces, from the ATLAS front panel. Additional status
information is available via the terminal menu, accessible through either a
VT-100terminalconnectedto theATLASBase Unit’s controlportor through
a Telnet session established through the Base Unit’s Ethernet port. Use the
terminal menu to configure the Quad T1/PRI Module and to download
application software.
