5.2.2 Connecting PSTN Fallback for BRI Lines
The device's BRI PSTN Fallback feature provides a wired connection for an ISDN BRI
phone or PBX (line), connected to the device's BRI port, to the ISDN network, upon a
power outage or IP network connectivity loss (i.e., no ping to network).
The BRI PSTN Fallback uses BRI ports #1 and #2. When the BRI PSTN Fallback is
activated, the internal metallic relay switch of BRI port #1 automatically connects BRI ports
#1 and #2, and calls can be routed and established between these entities.
To cable the BRI PSTN Fallback:
1. Connect BRI line 1 (Port #1), located on the rear panel, to an ISDN PBX.
2. Connect BRI line 2 (Port #2)), located on the rear panel, to the ISDN network (PSTN).
