An apparatus is dedicated to processing E1 data frames in communications network equipment including at least one E1 line interface unit. The method may also include forwarding the telephone call to a communication assistant and establishing a communication link from the communication assistant to the hearing-impaired party based on the terminating number. In some cases, each of the transmission line elements may include a signal line conductor and a ground plane conductor separated by a dielectric. One or more non-negative compare voltages are applied to at least a portion of the word lines after applying the erase pulses. These overriding functions perform custom processing on a client-by-client basis and forward their invocation to be corresponding functions of the server object. A method for assembling the drive axle assembly comprises the steps of securing the front cover to a front mounting surface of the support beam member, fastening the differential assembly module to the central plate section of the support beam member, and fastening the rear cover to the rear mounting surface of the support beam member.
