Chapter 7 Connecting ISDN PRI Network Modules
Channelized E1/ISDN PRI Balanced (120-Ohm) Network Modules
CE1/PRI Module Jumper Settings
Jumpers on CE1/PRI modules can be used to connect or disconnect receive shield to ground. (See
Table 7-2
.) The default setting for balanced, 120-ohm CE1/PRI-B modules disconnects receive shield to
ground. The default setting for unbalanced, 75-ohm CE1/PRI-U modules connects receive shield to
ground. If you are experiencing ground loop problems with E1 cabling, you may want to try changing
the jumper settings for the module.
Connecting CE1/PRI-B Modules to the Network
To connect a CE1/PRI-B (120-ohm) module to the network, use the appropriate cable to connect the
CE1/PRI-B port to an E1 CSU. (See
Figure 7-13
,
Figure 7-14
, and
Figure 7-15
, showing DB-15, twinax,
and RJ-45 CSUs, respectively.) These ports are color-coded tan.
