About Telephony Configurations for E1 and T1 PRI Cisco Unified
MeetingPlace Systems
Cisco Systems ships the necessary number of Multi Access Blades with all Cisco Unified MeetingPlace
Audio Server systems with E1 and T1 PRI configurations. A Cisco Unified MeetingPlace 8106 supports
three Multi Access Blade configurations, and a Cisco Unified MeetingPlace 8112 supports five
configurations:
Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Audio Servers with E1 and T1 PRI configurations also ship with either one
or two breakout boxes and cables, depending on the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace system configuration.
Note A Cisco Unified MeetingPlace system that is fully loaded with 960 E1 ports has two MP-MA-16-PRIs
and requires two breakout boxes. A Cisco Unified MeetingPlace system that is fully loaded with 736 T1
PRI ports has two MP-MA-16-PRIs and requires two breakout boxes. Both these configurations need a
Cisco Unified MeetingPlace 8112.
The breakout box provides a standard RJ-45 telephony interface for E1 and T1 PRI Cisco Unified
MeetingPlace systems. Cisco Systems ships the necessary number of trunk card interface cable
assemblies (50-pin Amphenol cables) that connect the breakout box to the Multi Access Blade transition
modules. Figure 2-10 shows the 50-pin Amphenol cable.
