Foreign Exchange Office (FXO) Interface Cards
A Foreign Exchange Office (FXO) interface connects local calls to a central office or PBX. This is the
interface a standard telephone provides. This type of card is illustrated in Figure 83, Figure 84, and
Figure 85.
The VIC-2FXO and VIC-2FXO-M1 interface cards are intended for use in North America (United
States, Canada, and Mexico).
The VIC-2FXO-EU and VIC-2FXO-M2 interface cards are intended for use in Europe.
The VIC-2FXO-M3 interface card is intended for use in Australia.
The VIC2-2FXO and VIC2-4FXO interface cards are software-configurable for all regions (see
Figure 84 and Figure 85).
Caution To comply with the Telcordia GR-1089 NEBS standard for electromagnetic compatibility and safety,
connect the 2-port FXO card (VIC2-2FXO) only to intra-building or non-exposed wiring or cabling. The
intrabuilding cable must be shielded and the shield must be grounded at both ends.
Warning
This equipment contains a ring signal generator (ringer), which is a source of hazardous voltage. Do
not touch the RJ-11 (phone) port wires (conductors), the conductors of a cable connected to the RJ-11
port, or the associated circuit-board when the ringer is active. The ringer is activated by an incoming
call.
