Termination Shunt for the ISDN BRI-S/T NIM Card
ISDN BRI-S/T terminal equipment devices may be connected at random points of the cable in
point-to-point or point-to-multipoint configurations. Line termination resistors must be provided
at both ends of the transmit/receive lines only.
The XSR’s BRI NIM card provides an option to terminate receive as well as transmit lines using
100 Ohm resistors. Shunts are required to shorten the appropriate contacts of the terminal headers
(P1, P2). Refer to “Installing Shunt/Terminal Strip” on page A-18 for directions.
Figure A-20 shows per port respective termination header locations and the orientation of the
receive and transmit pairs.
Refer to Chapter 2 in this manual for directions on accessing the BRI card on the XSR.
Installing Shunt/Terminal Strip
To install the shunt or terminal strip, attach two dual-pin units vertically to P1 and P2 four-pin
jumpers corresponding to the RJ-45 port using a balun, as shown in Figure A-20. Any other RJ-45
ports on the NIM card connected to 120-ohm lines do not require shunts.

Caution: The cable connecting the BRI NIM to the balun requires two additional wires to extend
the chassis ground to the balun. Cables of this type are often provided by your supplier who can
customize them for your needs.
