Connecting the Control Unit to the Network Interface
The adapter needed to connect the central office trunks to the control unit
depends on the type of network interface, as shown in Table 4-1.

After installing the adapter, label each jack going to the control unit with the
central office trunk number. Use the list provided by the local telephone
company or System Form 2c, System Numbering—Trunk Jacks for outside
trunks as a reference.
NOTE:
If you need to connect the trunk cords differently from the instructions on
the system forms, record each change on Form 2c, System Numbering—
Trunk Jacks, See Appendix A.
You may also need to know the interface codes for network facilities. These
codes are shown in Table 4-2 by trunk type and adapter type.
