About Telephony Configurations for E1 and T1 PRI Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Systems
Step 2
Attach the far end of the first E1 or T1 PRI telephony cable to the equipment that will connect with Cisco
Unified MeetingPlace.
In many cases, the other equipment has an RJ-48c socket in which to plug the E1 or T1 PRI telephony
cable. Alternately, the other equipment will be connected to a punchdown block. In this case, you will
need to determine the block’s connection diagram and then connect to it with discrete wires from the
cable.
Step 3
Plug the other end of the first E1 or T1 PRI telephony cable into the RJ-45 jack, labeled 1, on the far left
of the front of the breakout box. Continue from left to right as needed.
Step 4
Repeat
Step 2
and
Step 3
until all four E1 or T1 PRI telephony cables are connected to the breakout box.
Place the second, third, and fourth E1 or T1 PRI telephony cables into the RJ-45 jacks labeled 2, 3, and 4.
Step 5
Connect the trunk card cable assembly (50-pin Amphenol cable) to the back of the breakout box by
securing the screws on both ends.
Looking at the back of the breakout box, the connector on the right of the breakout box is for spans 1 to 8
and the connector on the left of the breakout box is for spans 9 to 16. Place the trunk card cable assembly
into the connector on the right. See
Figure 2-14
.
Step 6
Connect the other end of the trunk card cable assembly (50-pin Amphenol cable) to the Multi Access
Blade transition module by securing the screws on both ends.
For the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace 8106, place the 50-pin Amphenol cable into the connector on the
left, labeled spans 9 to 16.
For the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace 8112, place the 50-pin Amphenol cable into the connector on the
bottom, labeled spans 9 to 16.
