T1 RJ-48C-Loopback plug
The RJ-48C-Loopback plug loops the transmit signal back to the MAX TNT unit. Table B-8
shows the pinouts.
T1/PRI WAN connectors
Table B-9 lists the pins on the T1/PRI WAN port used for Transmit and Receive. The
remaining pins are not connected.
WAN switched services available to a MAX TNT unit
MAX TNT units are compatible with both AT&T and Northern Telecom central office
switches, and can access all T1/PRI switched digital services offered by AT&T’s ACCUNET
Switched Digital Services:
•
MCI 56Kbps and 64Kbps services
•
Sprint Switched 56Kbps and 64Kbps services
•
MultiRate and GloBanD (and GVPN in CCITT countries) PRI network services
Note:
MAX TNT units can only access Switched-56Kbps services on a T1 access line or a
Switched-56 line.
For a listing of the compatible switch types, see the Switch Type parameter listing in the
APX 8000/MAX TNT Reference. In addition to connecting to switched circuits, a MAX TNT
unit can connect to dedicated circuits and to aggregate dedicated and switched circuits.
