For information about the BITS port pinouts, see Chapter 5, “Troubleshooting.”

Note Use of two BITS sources or a Y-cable is optional. Each BITS input port is routed to both RSPs, so that SETS device on each RSP has visibility to both BITS inputs.

Warning To comply with the Telcordia GR-1089 NEBS standard for electromagnetic compatibility and safety, connect the BITS ports only to intra-building or unexposed wiring or cable. The intrabuilding cable must be shielded and the shield must be grounded at both ends. The intra-building port(s) of the equipment or subassembly must not be metallically connected to interfaces that connect to the OSP or its wiring. These interfaces are designed for use as intra-building interfaces only (Type 2 or Type 4 ports as described in GR-1089-CORE) and require isolation from the exposed OSP cabling. The addition of Primary Protectors is not sufficient protection in order to connect these interfaces metallically to OSP wiring.
