E1 interfaces (Main board/X16E1-V3 card)
...................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Purpose
2048 kbit/s E1 inputs and outputs can be connected to these interfaces either via 120 Ω
cables (symmetrical) or 75 Ω cables (coaxial).
Connector data
The E1 connectors which are located on the main board and/or on the X16E1-V3
option card are RJ45 connectors with metal shell for grounding. It must be ensured that
the connector metal shell has good contact with the cable shield.
