Page 31: Connecting To The Network
Note: TX 4000 boards are configured as T1/E1 120 ohm boards. To connect a TX 4000 board as an E1 75 ohm board, use a balun transformer to convert the impedance from 120 ohm to 75 ohm. No other configuration changes are required. For more information, contact a Dialogic Services and Support representative. -

Page 35: Ip Network Configuration
Using standard Ethernet cables, connect the Ethernet 2 connectors on both boards to the IP network connectors. Note: Dialogic recommends using a private Ethernet link to connect the redundant boards to avoid loss or delay of vital checkpoint messages. However, if each board in the redundant pair requires multi-homing, you can use Ethernet 1 for both the redundant pathway and for SIGTRAN network access. - Page 36 IP network configuration. The boards are located in the same chassis to ensure board-level redundancy.
