Cables and Connectors
T1/PRI interface specifications
T1 RJ-48C-Loopback plug
This plug loops the transmit signal back to the MAX.
T1/PRI WAN ports
Table C-11 lists the pins on RJ-48C sockets on the MAX used for T1/PRI WAN interface. Only
pins 1, 2, 4, and 5 are used. The remaining pins are not connected.
WAN switched services available to the MAX
The MAX is compatible with both AT&T and Northern Telecom central office switches, and
can access all T1/PRI switched digital services offered by AT&T’s ACCUNET Switched
Digital Services:
• MCI 56 Kbps and 64 Kbps services
• Sprint Switched-56 (Kbps) and 64 Kbps services
• MultiRate and GloBanD (and GVPN in CCITT countries) PRI network services
Note: The MAX can access only Switched-56 Kbps services on a T1 access line or a
Switched-56 line.
For a listing of the compatible switch types, see the Switch Type parameter in the Reference
Guide for the MAX. In addition to switched circuits, the MAX can connect to nailed-up
circuits and to aggregate nailed-up and switched circuits.
