CONFIGURATION GUIDELINES

This section describes the method used in determining the customer’s requirements and collect-

ing the information needed to design a DEFINITY Generic 1 or Generic 3 system for the custo-

mer. The section highlights information used by the Account Team, along with the Delivery

Operation and Support System (DOSS) configuration, in performing this task. Refer to the fol-

lowing documents for a more detailed discussion.

● For G1 systems, DEFINITY Communications System, Generic 1 Implementation, 555-

204-654.

● For G3i systems, DEFINITY Communications System, Generic 3i Implementation, 555-

230-650.

● For G3i-Global systems, DEFINITY Communications System, Generic 3i-Global Imple-

mentation, 555-230-652.

● For G3r systems, DEFINITY Communications System, Generic 3r Implementation, 555-

230-651.

The section is divided into two parts. Part 1 provides a communications survey with the steps

that must be performed by the Account Team and/or the client. Part 2 includes information that

can be used to identify system requirements needed in completing some of the steps in Part 1.

Information in this section assumes that Account Team members are familiar with DEFINITY

Generic 1 and Generic 3 systems and associated Price Element Codes (PECS).

For domestic sales, the BC Systems Design Center (BDC) should always be consulted to

provide engineering support for Automatic Alternate Routing (AAR), Distributed Communi-

cations System (DCS), Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN), Uniform Dial Plan

(UDP), complex DS1 feature configurations, and any time processor occupancy is in ques-

tion.

If a configuration has a Processor Port Network (PPN) and an Expansion Port Network

(EPN) in different rooms (same premises or different premises) or if the cabinets are more

than 1-inch apart, the Premises Services Consultant (PSC) must be consulted for design of

the fiber link.

Any statement appearing in the following material is limited by, and subject to, all terms and pro-

visions of the Purchase or Master Agreement for DEFINITY Generic 1 or Generic 3 Systems

including those limiting warranties and liabilities of AT&T.

Communications Survey

General

The communications survey identifies system information along with the users’ job functions and

communications needs. This information is then matched with available features and hardware

to design a System that fulfills a customer’s requirements.
