Interface Cable Both SIC-1BS/SIC-2BS and SIC-1BU/SIC-2BU use the telephone cable with ferrite core.

c CAUTION: The corresponding cables of SIC-1BS/SIC-2BS and SIC-1BU/SIC-2BU are included in their standard shipment packages.

Connecting the Interface Cable

c

CAUTION:

When connecting the interface cable, pay attention to the mark on the interface to avoid wrong insertion, which may damage the interface card or even the router host.

If outdoor cabling is involved, you need to install a lightning arrester at the input end of the SIC-BU/SIC-BS interface cable to avoid lightning strike.

After the interface card is properly installed, follow these steps to connect the cable.

Step 1: Verify the type of the ISDN line provided by your telecommunications service provider.

Step 2: Connect the cable.

For SIC-1BS/SIC-2BS

If the line is an ISDN U-interface line, use an NT1 for conversion. Insert one end of the telephone cable with ferrite core into the BRI S/T interface of SIC-1BS/SIC-2BS, and the other end to NT1.

If the line is an ISDN S/T interface line, insert one end of the telephone cable with ferrite core to the BRI S/T interface of SIC-1BS/SIC-2BS, and connects the other end with the ISDN S/T interface line.
