ZEPHYR XPORT USER’S GUIDE

3.Using a "straight through" 8 pin cable wired according to TIA/EIA T- 568- A T- 568A or T- 568B connect the ISDN S jack of the first Xport to the ISDN S jack of the second Xstream.

4.Configure the second Xport's ISDN settings. Enter your second SPID and your second Directory number as MSN/DN.

5.Reboot both units. They should now function normally, each with access to one ISDN B channel.

Sharing ISDN worldwide

Multiple ISDN terminals sharing the ISDN "S bus" are quite common in many countries outside the USA. The Xports ISDN card includes 110 ohm terminating resistors. You can get detailed requirements from your Telecom vendor if you need more information than provided here. This technique can also be used in the USA and Canada, when an external NT 1 is used.

8-position 8-pin modular cables

NT1

 

 

(NTBA or NCTE)

1.Connect the first Xport to ISDN NT1 (NCTE, DSU, or NTBA) in the usual manner (see section 3.1.2).

2.Configure the first Xport's ISDN settings normally for your situation. The TELCO setting would generally be set to ETS 300 (or, for Japan, INS 64). You may optionally enter a MSN into the MSN/DN field (see section 3.5).

3.Connect the second Xport to ISDN NT1 (NCTE, DSU, or NTBA). If the NT1 does not have a second interface port use a "straight through" modular splitter to break out the modular jack at the NT1 into two jacks.

4.Configure the second Xport's ISDN settings. The TELCO setting would normally be set to ETS 300 (or, for Japan, INS 64). You may optionally enter a MSN into the MSN/DN field.

5.Reboot both units. They should now function normally.

3.7Cell Phone Interfacing (the Aux Audio Interface)

For maximum flexibility, your Zephyr Xport can be used as a mixer to establish connections through a cellular telephone (handset). The audio quality will be dependant on the type of cellular system used, and will be comparable to any other cellular call using the system in question.
