Connecting an E1/T1 cable
CAUTION:
When connecting the interface cable, pay attention to the mark on the interface to avoid wrong
insertion, which might damage the interface module or even the router.
As a best practice, install a lightning protector at the input end of the 8T1 cables to protect them
against lightning strikes more efficiently when they are led outdoors.
