Warning REMINDER
DECT2/DECT4 and DECT4 HB boards are phase-out. They are still supported by RELEASE 12.4 but can no
more be configured for addition or for new installation.
They are NOT compatible with SUOTA functionality
(3) Manual modifications are required.
(4) No alternative possible.
(5) Boards of IO2/OBCA type do not exist in common hardware. A certain number of applications and
functionalities are therefore no more supported, such as:
Extension of V24 physical ports via SPB board => use the Moxa box
Direct management of data applications in V120 accessible from a terminal adapter (TA in V120)
locally or from the outside (appli login, SLIP, hotel management, etc.).
Data transmission in the B channel of a digital support (T2, PCM, etc.)
Link in a B channel of a T2 (switched or not switched)
Link in a B channel of a PCM board (often encountered in South America where T2s are less
common)
