Cable System Switch Type [telecom]

Feb 23, 2010 2 Replies

Anyone have an idea what the end office switch type "NT-5" is?



That is what comes up in Local Calling Guide for the switch used in NPA 949 by Cox Communications to provide dial tone services on their Orange County, California cable service.



I know, "NT" seems like those folks that make DMS switches. ;-)



Wasn't the equipment end of NT sold? They might have renamed it,

Yes, it's an abbreviation for Northern Telecom. It's the DMS-500, but I think that the official designation by Nortel is the NT-500.
