The circuit is being delivered in Belgium by FranceTelecom.
On my end it is delivered by 360, and it looks like the people that I'm
dealing with have not done this before, so extracting recommendations from
them is difficult. Every answer has "this should work" instead of "this
will work".
Here are the options that 360 told are available:

E1: G.703/G.704 framed or G.703 unframed
hence framing options: CRC4 or NO-CRC4
coding: AMI or HDB3 (HDB3 most common for data)

The E1 will be used just for data and will terminate on a T1 on my end.
The other mystery is how will the E1 be changed into T1 on my end?
