2.7 Connecting the Cables
Before starting, refer to the site installation plan and identify the cables intended
for connection to this FCD-E1LC unit. For general information regarding
connections, refer to
Section 2.2.
Connecting the Main Link
³ To connect the FCD-E1LC main link to equipment with balanced interface:
• Use a straight (point-to-point) cable terminated in RJ-45 connectors to
connect the FCD-E1LC RJ-45 connector designated E1/T1 MAIN to the
designated equipment connector.
One of the contacts in the E1 main port connector is used to sense the
connection of the unbalanced adapter cable (see below). Therefore, do not
connect cables with more than two pairs when you want to use the balanced
interface.
³ To connect the FCD-E1LC main link to equipment with unbalanced interface:
1. Connect the RJ-45 connector of the CBL-RJ45/2BNC/E1/X adapter cable to the
FCD-E1LC RJ-45 connector designated E1/T1 MAIN.
2. Connect the coaxial cables from the other equipment to the two BNC
connectors at the other end of the adapter cable. Pay attention to correct
connection:
 Connect the cable from the user’s equipment transmit output to the
green BNC connector (main link receive input)
 Connect the cable from the user’s equipment receive input to the red BNC
connector (main link transmit output).
