Attach the T-1/ DS-1 Cables

Attaching Cables to Octal T1 Modules

The CPX connects to host Class 5 switches via multiple T1/DS-1 spans. Each T-1 module in the CPX includes a corresponding T1 transition module that is accessible from the rear of the shelf.

Connect the host switch T1 cables to the CPX:

 

Note

 

T1 cables for the Octal T1 module require RJ-48C plugs

 

on the CPX end for these connections. To facilitate the

 

connections, label each cable by its destination port at

 

the host Class 5 switch.

 

 

 

Step 1

Following the installation engineering and provisioning

 

documentation, map the T1/DS-1 connections from the host switch

 

to T1/DS-1 groups.

 

Each T1 connection is assigned a T1/DS-1 group number and an

 

individual connection number, such as 1-1. T-1 #1 must connect to

 

T1/DS-1 #1 at the Class 5 switch, etc. A T1/DS-1 interface group is

 

the logical administrator of the T1s. The minimum number

 

required for an interface group is 2.

Step 2

Connect the T1/DS-1 spans to the T-1 transition modules in the

 

back of the CPX shelf.

Note

T1 jacks are numbered 1–8 or 1–12 (#1 is located at the bottom).
