In telecommunications, a pulse link repeater (PLR) is a device that interfaces concatenated E and M signaling paths.
A PLR converts a ground, received from the E lead of one signal path, to −48 Vdc, which is applied to the M lead of the concatenated signal path.
In many commercial carrier systems, the channel bank cards or modules have a "PLR" option that permits the direct concatenation of E&M signaling paths, without the need for separate PLR equipment.
Famous quotes containing the words pulse and/or link:
“Oh Science, lift aloud thy voice that stills
The pulse of fear,”
—Lucretius (Titus Lucretius Carus)
“The secret of biography resides in finding the link between talent and achievement. A biography seems irrelevant if it doesn’t discover the overlap between what the individual did and the life that made this possible. Without discovering that, you have shapeless happenings and gossip.”
—Leon Edel (b. 1907)
