YES YES YES!!! I realized that after I sent out the message and looked at the notes that the I had made form talking with one of the Ascend field reps. I am very sorry about that. :-( The problem with the line side is the async conversion that is done between the line and the CO switch. The conversion is done atleast 2 times which will not work with the cards. The Trunk side CT1 does not do this conversion as many times and hence does not cause the problem. This is the way I understood it from what the Ascend rep told me and I verified with my Telco contacts. > > Here is a snippet from Ascends Web Page at URL: > <A HREF="http://www.ascend.com/products/series56/series56index.html">http://www.ascend.com/products/series56/series56index.html</A> > > These modules can be integrated into central site MAX and MAX TNT WAN > access switches and are available in 8-, 12- > and 16-port modules for the MAX and 48-port modules for the MAX TNT.
