2-WIRE IDSL LINE DRIVER RACK CARDS Switch S6: Operation Mode In some cases, you must include bi-polar violations in the AMI structure when operating in clear channel (64 kbps) mode. This is determined by communications or terminal equipment external to the Card. Use Switch S6 to configure the unit to transmit G.703 data to the network with or without BPVs.
APPENDIX D: G.703 Rear Card Module D.5 Making Interface Connections The module provides access to a 64-kbps co-directional G.703 PCM network. Figure D-3 shows the position of the G.703 interface and the line interface of the G.703 rear card. This section describes how to connect the G.703 interface and the line interface.
2-WIRE IDSL LINE DRIVER RACK CARDS D.5.1 C G.703 PCM N ONNECTING TO A ETWORK HANNEL The 120-ohm RJ-45 port on a G.703 rear card is pre-wired for direct connection to the G.703 PCM network. Connect the RJ-45 jack provided by your digital service carrier to the 120-ohm G.703 interface on the card using a straight-through twisted-pair cable between 19 and 26 AWG (0.4 mm to 0.9 mm, inversely).
APPENDIX D: G.703 Rear Card Module D.5.2 C ONNECTING THE NTERFACE Two essential requirements for connecting the line interface on the G.703 rear card include: 1. These units work in pairs. Both units at the end of the twisted pair must have the proper 2-wire/4-wire setting.
2-WIRE IDSL LINE DRIVER RACK CARDS D.5.3 T RJ-45 ABLE ONNECTION VIA The line interface port on the Card’s twisted-pair interface is polarity insensitive and is wired for a two-wire interface. Proper two-wire pairing between the two line drivers is shown in Table D-3. Table D-3.
