[c-nsp] T1 Cables

[David Coulson]

Nope - Any old Cat5 will do the trick. If you're seeing errors on 
multiple circuits, and they're delivered on copper, it might be 
something telco related on the backend. They should be able to do tests 
against the NIU and CSU and establish if the issue is on the telco 
facilities or on the wiring between NIU and CSU.

What sort of errors are you seeing? Can they be explained by anything 
other than cabling, such as clocking issues and such?
