Connection to ISDN network
Ports for the connection of other apparatus
The following interfaces normally operate at SELV (Safe Extra Low Voltage)
levels:
■
Asynchronous (console) ports
■
Ethernet ports
■
G703 ports
■
Synchronous ports
Note
SELV is a secondary circuit whose voltages do not exceed a safe value
under normal operating conditions and under single fault conditions. Under
normal operating conditions the voltages do not exceed 42.4 V peak AC or
60 V DC.
TNV1
The following interfaces are Telecommunications Network Voltage (TNV1)
circuits, which operate normally within the limits of SELV:
■
BRI ports for connection to ISDN Basic Rate telecommunications networks
■
PRI ports for connection to ISDN Primary Rate telecommunications
networks
■
E1/T1 ports for connection to E1/T1 services
Note
A TNV1 circuit is a circuit which under normal operating conditions does
not exceed the limits for SELV and on which overvoltages from
telecommunication networks are possible.
