SLD (Subscriber Line Data) Interface
The SLD bus is used by the EPIC to interface with the subscriber line devices. A Serial
Interface Port (SIP) is used for the transfer of all digital voice and data, feature control
and signaling information between the individual subscriber line devices, the PCM
highways and the control backplane. The SLD approach provides a common interface
for one analog or digital component per line. The EPIC switches the PCM data
transparently switched onto the PCM highways.
There are three wires connecting each subscriber line device and the EPIC: two
common clock signals shared among all devices, and a unique bidirectional data wire for
each of the eight SIP ports. The direction signal (FSC) is an 8 kHz clock output from the
EPIC (master) that serves as a frame synch to the subscriber line devices (slave) as well
as a transfer indicator. The data is transferred at a 512 kHz data rate, clocked by the
subscriber clock (DCL). When FSC is high (first half of the 125 s SLD frame), four bytes
of digital data are transmitted on the SLD bus from the EPIC to the slave (downstream
direction). During the second half of the frame when FSC is low, four bytes of data are
transferred from the slave back to the EPIC (upstream direction).
Channel B1 and B2 are 64 kbit/s channels reserved for voice and data to be routed to
and from the PCM highways. The third and seventh byte are used to transmit and
receive control information for programming the slave devices (feature control channel).
The last byte in each direction is reserved for signaling data.

SLD Frame Structure
In contrast to other Siemens telecom devices, the EPIC does not provide an “IOM mode”
or an “SLD mode” that can be selected by programming a single “mode bit”. Instead, the
EPIC provides a configurable interface (CFI) that can be configured for a great variety of
interfaces, including IOM-1, multiplexed IOM-1, IOM-2 and SLD interfaces.
