Line Trunk Group (LTG)

The Line Trunk Groups (LTGs) are the

interfaces between the digital switching
Network and the network environment of
the exchange. Which may be analog or
digital.
Types of LTG
LTGA (Direct Connect to Subscriber Lines)
LTGB (Connectivity with DLU)
LTGC (NWD and Tandem Trunks)
LTGD (International Gateway Trunks)
LTGF (Combine Version of LTGB and C)
LTGG (Enhanced Version of LTGF)
LTGH (Packet Switching)
LTGN (New Version of LTGG)
LTGM (New Version of LTGN)
Physical Hardware of LTG
LTGB = One frame used for one LTG
LTGC = One frame used for one LTG
LTGF = One Shelf used for one LTG
LTGG = One semi shelf used for one LTG
LTGN = One Module used for one LTG
LTGM = One Module used for four LTGs
LTG Modules
Depending on the application, the LTU is
equipped with different modules
GP (Group Processor)
GS (Group Switch)
LIU (Line Interface Unit)
TOG (Tone Generator)
CRPC (Code Receiver for Push Button Code
Group Processor
The Group Processor (GP) is an independent
periphery controller. Group Processor is a
combination of following Four Modules.
GCG (Group Clock Generator)
PMU (Processing & Memory Unit)
SILCDLU (Signaling Line Interface
Controller for DLU)
SMX (Signaling Multiplexer)
Group Switch
The Group Switch (GS) is used if the LTGB
interfaces with subscriber lines. Group Switch
is a combination of following Four Modules.
GSC (Group Switch Controller)
PSC (Parallel To Serial Converter)
MCAA (Memory Conference Attenuation
Module Type A
MCAB (Memory Conference Attenuation
Module Type B
Line I nterface Unit
The Line Interface Unit (LIU) is the
interface between the LTG and the
Switching Network (SN). The LIU
transmits the information in parallel through
both Switching Network. If the Switching
Network in active mode fails the LIU
transmitting information via remaining
Switching Network.
Tone Generator
The Tone Generator (TOG) produces call
processing tones. TOG Generates 64
different types of Tones.
Code Receiver for
Push Button Code
The code receiver are allocated to push
button dial subscribers and trunk lines only
during digit input. CRPC Module only used
in LTGB.
