FCC Requirements This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device
pursuant 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.
Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference, in which
case the user is required to correct the interference at the user’s own expense.
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 com-
munications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception
(which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on), the user is encouraged to try to
correct the interference by taking one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver
• Plug the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is currently con-
nected
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help
This device must also accept any interference received, including interference that may cause
undesired operation.
WARNING: For use only with a certified Class 2 power supply. See Appendix B,
"Specifications".
WARNING: Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the
equipment.

iii
The 7200p and 7500p comply with Part 68 of the FCC Rules and the requirements adopted by
the ACTA. On the bottom of each unit is a label that contains, among other information, a prod-
uct indentifier. As an example, the 7200p identifier format is US:GICDDNANNE7200P. If
requested, this number must be provided to the telephone company.
1All direct connections to network lines must be made using standard plugs and jacks
(compliant with Part 68 and the requirements adopted by the ACTA). A compliant telephone
cord with a modular plug is provided with this product. It is designed to be connected to a
compatible modular jack that is also compliant. See installation instructions for details. The
table below presents a list of applicable registration jack USOCs and facility interface codes
(FIC). These are required when ordering service from the telco.
2If the unit appears to be malfunctioning, it should be disconnected from the network lines
until the source of trouble is determined to be your equipment or the telephone line. If your
equipment needs repair, it should not be reconnected until it is repaired.
3If your telephone equipment causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone company
may discontinue your service temporarily. If possible, they will notify you in advance.
However, if advance notice is not practical, you will be notified as soon as possible. You will
be informed of your right to file a complaint with the FCC.
4Your telephone company may make changes to its facilities, equipment, operations, or
procedures that could affect the proper functioning of your equipment. If they do, you will
be notified in advance so you can have the opportunity to maintain uninterrupted telephone
service.
5If you experience trouble with the 7200p or 7500p, please contact Verilink for information
on obtaining service or repairs (refer to “Support from Verilink” on page xv). The telephone
company may ask that you disconnect this equipment from the network until the problem has
been corrected or until you are sure the equipment is not malfunctioning. No user serviceable
parts are contained in this equipment. This equipment may not be used for coin service
provided by the telephone company. Connection to party lines is subject to state tariffs.
Contact the state Public Utilities Commission or Corporation for information. Do not attempt
to repair this equipment yourself.

About this Manual
The designation 7200p/7500p denotes features and specifications common to
all IAD models in the family. Where there are specific differences between
models, the screen captures and feature or parameter descriptions will address
those differences.
This reference guide for the Verilink 7200p/7500p describes IAD features and
specifications, configuration, and cabling. It is not a users guide containing

C HAPTER 1 I NTRODUCTION
This chapter introduces the Verilink®7200p/7500p integrated access device
(IAD) and describes their hardware and software. The designation
7200p/7500p denotes features and specifications common to all IAD models
in this family. Specific differences between model parameters or
specifications are noted.
The 7200p and 7500p IADs provide carrier-class reliability, advanced
networking features, and remote management capabilities that deliver
cost-effective value to end users and enable service providers to enhance
profitability.
The 7200p/7500p series IADs are ideal for service providers wishing to offer
an all-in-one device to SMB customers with key systems and PBXs (private
branch exchanges). These IADs deliver toll-quality voice service with
carrier-class reliability and provide service providers the ability to easily
migrate customers from circuit-switched to packet-based networks without
changing IADs.
Interfaces and Features of the 7200p/7500p
Data Interfaces
The data connection through the IAD supports IEEE 802.10-compliant
bridging and routing.
When the IAD is configured for routing, it supports Routing Information
Protocol (RIP) version 1, version 2, or static IP routing. The IAD complies
with RFC-1812 when interfacing with Version 4 IP routers.
The IAD can terminate the following data interfaces:
•ATM data transport via T1 per RFC 1483 or RFC 2364
•Frame Relay data transport via T1 per RFC 1490
•Frame Relay data transport per RFC 1483 with Q.922 frames
