Set NT1 termination to 100 ohms. Line and Power Connections Power for the telephone may be provided on PS1 (phantom power on the transmit and receive pairs from the NT1) or PS2 (power on pins 7 and 8). Tone Commander NT1U-220TC standalone NT1s and NT1U-223TC rack-mount NT1 cards provide both PS1 and PS2 power without additional connections.
Page 23
WARNING: If a separate power supply is used to provide PS2 power to the telephone, make sure that the output ground of the NT1 power supply and the PS2 power supply are connected (with the correct polarity) to a common ground reference point or electrical damage to the telephone may occur.
6210U/6220U Installation _________________ U models include a built-in NT1. Optional external ISDN S/T Terminal Equipment may share the telephone's ISDN line by connecting to the S/T jack on the telephone. If you are not using external Terminal Equipment, no termination switch setting is required.
