MX4428 MXP Engineering / Technical Manual Document: LT0273
Introduction
Page 1-2 24 March 2006 Issue 1.5
1.1 ABOUT THIS MANUAL
This manual (MX4428 Product Manual Volume 11) is intended to provide all information and
procedures required to incorporate one or more MXPs within an MX4428 system. It
predominantly covers the function and engineering associated with the MXP itself, its impact
on the MX4428 Responder Loop and the analogue loop/line(s) to which the compatible
devices are connected. It does not duplicate basic MX4428 system engineering information,
except at the point of interface (i.e. at the MX4428 Responder Loop), or for clarification as
required. It is therefore a supplement to the F4000 Engineering Manual (F4000 Product
Manual, Vol 3), to which the reader is referred for further information.
