Caller ID Unit - CID (VB-44513)

This card supports Caller ID on loop start trunks. This unit installs directly on top of the Loop Start
Trunk Card (VB-44510), and supports all 8 of that Card's circuits for Caller ID.

DTMF Multi-Frequency Receiver Card - MFR/8 (VB-44110)

The MFR/8 card accepts dialed DTMF tones and determines the dialed digits. Each card contains 8
receiver circuits.
This card can be installed in either an option slot or any flexible slot. The maximum number of MFR/8
cards that can be installed depends on the number of ports in the system: 1 MFR/8 card in a 96-port
(1-cabinet) system; 2 MFR/8 cards in a 192-port (2-cabinet) system, ... 6 MFR/8 cards in a 576-port
(6-cabinet system). However, all the MFR/8 cards can be placed in the same cabinet.

Power Failure Transfer Unit (VB-43703)

This 4-line unit is designed to switch outside dial tone from the telephone company direct to an SLT
phone when power is lost. The Power Failure Transfer Unit connects 4 SLTs to 4 CO lines.

Conference Card (4 circuits) - CONF (VB-44120)

This is a conference speech card with four 8-party conference circuits. One conference card per
cabinet can be installed into any flexible slot (if only one circuit is used), or into flexible slot 1, 5, or 9 (if
more than one circuit is used). An 8-party conference can consist of 8 extensions; 7 extensions + 1
external line; or 1 extension + 7 external lines (or any combination in between).

Application Processor Interface Card - API (VB-44131)

The API provides an interface path between the telephone system's information BUS and a personal
computer-based application (such as external integrated voice mail or external enhanced ACD).
Only one API card can be installed in a cabinet. A maximum of six API cards can be installed in a
multiple-cabinet system.
External interface: RS232C port (19200bps maximum)

Integrated Feature Module Card (8 circuits) - IFM ACD (VB-44192)

The IFM card (Integrated Feature Module) ACD card provides a plug-in platform for running
enhanced ACD, and provides powerful Automatic Call Distribution functions. The IFM ACD/MIS
(Management Information System), is also available to provide call reports. The IFM ACD/MIS
software is installed on a PC, which is connected to the IFM ACD card directly or across the LAN with
