Connecting T1/E1 cables
The physical layer interface for the Cisco ASR 914 T1/E1 port is a customer-installed high-density connector.
The high-density connector has thumbscrews which should be screwed into the interface when the cable is
installed.
Note Patch panels are required in order to connect the high-density interface connectors to individual T1/E1 lines.
Installing the Cable Connectors
T1/E1 Cable Connectors
Figure 21: T1/E1 Cable Connector
One end of the cable (see the figure above) has a 68-pin connector that plugs into the T1/E1 interface module
and the other end of the cable with a 68-pin connector is connected to a RJ48, AMP64 or a DIN patch panel.
Use the thumbscrews on either side of the connector to secure the cable to the interface.
T1/E1 Pinouts
For information about the pinout of the cable connecting the T1/E1 interface to the rear of the patch panel,
see the
Patch Panel cables
The patch panel cable connects the interface modules with the patch panel.
Each cable connects one VHDCI connector on the interface module to the connector on the patch panel. A
set of three cables is required to connect one interface module to one 48-port patch panel.
