Zhone | Products | MALC-EBS

The EBS MALC line card provides 24 ports which can be connected to Nortel Electronic Business Set telephones. More commonly known as P-Phone, EBS telephones are deployed throughout the world in business environments. The EBS line card supports both TDM voice and packet voice.

In TDM mode GR-303 groups with EBS support connect to the MALC uplink/controller card with integrated T1's, the MALC-UPLINK-2-FE/GE-TDM. This FE/GE-TDM uplink card supports Gigabit Ethernet packet uplinks and T1/E1 interfaces allowing the MALC to support both packet and TDM applications simultaneously.

In packet mode the GR-303 groups with EBS support are connected to a MALC Voice Gateway card in the Central Office (CO). The Voice Gateway converts the TDM voice to packet voice which can be converted back to EBS voice at a remote location. This configuration allows EBS support in locations where T1's are not currently present.

All EBS features available on the switch are available through the MALC.
