E1 connectors
Two unbalanced 75 Ohm BNC receivers, and one unbalanced 75 Ohm BNC transmitter
allow you to connect the instrument to an E1 (2M) circuit to transmit and analyze traffic.
The Rx 2 receiver can be used as the input for a SETS signal or an E1 reference clock.
E1 RJ 48 transmitter/receiver
One balanced 120 Ohm RJ 48 transmitter/receiver allows you to connect the 5800 to
an E1 (2M) circuit to transmit and analyze traffic.
DS1 connectors
Two DS1 Bantam receivers and one DS1 Bantam transmitter allow you to connect the
5800 to a DS1 circuit to transmit and analyze traffic. The Rx 2 receiver can be used as
the input for a DS1 BITS signal.

SMA connector for external clock input. Use the SMA to BNC barrel adapter if a BNC
connector is needed (applicable to MSAM v1 only).

About the CSAM Assembly

The CSAM is used in combination with the T-BERD ⁄ MTS 6000A base unit, the
T-BERD ⁄ MTS 6000AV2 base unit or a T-BERD ⁄ MTS 8000 base unit with a DMC
chassis. Each CSAM is factory-configured to meet your unique testing requirements.

The E1 and DS1 interfaces should not be connected at the same time. After
running your test, disconnect from one interface before connecting to the
other interface.
