Card Density

[Midnite1971]

What exactly does this mean? How does programming (CDEN) correctly affect it? If entered incorrectly....such as making a PRI trunk an SD instead of a 4D, will that affect it greatly?

Thanks

That prompt can be skipped in newer Nortel's. There are older cards (15 years and more) that required the Card Density be input. Card density is the number of ports on a card. The older analog and digital cards had only 8 ports, trunk cards typically had 4. In pri programming, if the CDEN prompt comes up, just return past it!

OK...I wasn't sure cause we're having some problems with our PRIs and they're on a NT5D12 card which is a dual PRI card. It's currently set at single density and I wanted to make sure that wasn't causing any issues.

Thanks!!

What problems are you having on the PRI's? What release and type of system do you have??

You can see the problems on the thread titled "Fast Busies on Outbound

Can you give us a print of one of the TN's on Loop 25 and also the RDB that is associated with that span.

That is all in the other thread...

Only thing I saw here was the D-Channel for Loop 25 nothing about the RDB or TN
