What Meridian application provides local area network (LAN) connectivity so you can
share equipment, data files, and application software utilizing a modem?
CompuCALL.
Where is the optional supervisory lamp panel for the 291 Conference/Alerting System
usually installed?
The master station.
Which type of equipment modules within the 291 Conference/Alerting System provide the
necessary amplification, ringing, timing, tone supply, and fusing needed for system operation?
Internal control.
The power plant ground supply will not provide
digital signal grounds.
Fuse block number 62F14 in a given power distribution center (PDC) identifies the
15th fuse on the panel in mounting position 62.
Alarm and control inputs detected by the alarm system hardware are interfaced with the
alarm system software through
scan points.
What hardware entity contains the alarm system backup circuits which generate an alarm if
the office alarm unit fails?
A meridian trunk module.
The primary reason you measure the voltage across terminal or distribution frame protectors
before removing and replacing them is to
make sure dangerous voltages are not present on the line.
In addition to fiber-optic and copper cables, what do we use to interconnect integrated
communications access package access nodes on a deployed base within the same theater area?

What is the long-haul transmission component of Theater Deployable Communications
(TDC)?
Lightweight Multiband Satellite Terminal (LMST).
What’s the difference between the basic access module (BAM) and the configurable access
module (CAM)?
BAM has a fixed capability.
What Integrated Communications Access Package (ICAP) node module provides the radio frequency (RF) line-of-sight (LOS) link function for internodal connectivity?
