<p style="margin-bottom: 12pt;">Hi Dane..<br>
<br>
Simple rule for this.<br>
<br>
1. Customer Equipment to Customer Equipment = T1/E1 cross over cable<br>
2. Customer Equipment to Network = Straight through cable<br>
<br>
Customer Equipment = PBX, Voice cards on routers, key systems <br>
Network = the PSTN, your carrier, etc<br>
<br>
Bit more info to help explain hopefully :)<br>
<br>
Your 3845 T1 voice interface has pin outs as follows<br>
<br>
Pin<br>
1 - Receive (RX) Ring<br>
2 - RX Tip<br>
4 - Transmit (TX) Ring<br>
5 - TX Tip<br>
<br>
Think of receive as your ear and transmit as your mouth<br>
Straight through cables connect pin 1 to 1, 2 to 2, 4 to 4, 5 to 5.<br>
<br>
So when connecting customer to customer equipment with a straight through cable<br>
You are essentially connecting ear to ear and mouth to mouth.<br>
To get complete circuits you need ear to mouth and mouth to ear<br>
<br>
An E1/T1 cross over cable "crosses" the RX and TX connections as
follows:<br>
Pin 1 to Pin 4<br>
Pin 2 to Pin 5<br>
Pin 4 to Pin 1<br>
Pin 5 to Pin 2<br>
<br>
Network / PSTN equipment has different pinouts.. i.e. it expects RX on pin's 1
and 2, and expects TX on Pins 4 and 5 from your equipment. Hence straight
through cable required.<br>
<br>
Also dont forget if this is ISDN you also have a layer 2 network / user element
to consider. i.e. if you connect 2 x customer equipment together - one side
needs to be configured as Network side, and the other as user.<br>
<br>
Hope this helps a bit..<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
<br>

<p>First I wanted to say thanks for the replies and
information.<br>
<br>
Second, well I got it sorted out finally. I took down one of the<br>
PRI's after hours from the IAD and connected it to the 3845 with a<br>
straight through cable just to test. It did not come up which is what<br>
I think I and everyone who responded on this list would have expected.<br>
I connected the IAD to the 3845 with a T1 crossover just as I have<br>
the IAD connected to my CMM-6T1s and it came up.<br>
<br>
Now the kicker is that this same 3845 T1/PRI port connected to the<br>
AT&T demarc requires a straight through cable.<br>
<br>
I have to be honest and admit that this confuses me. Of course its<br>
4am and I have been busting my ass since 6am so I am not able to<br>
mentally sort this out. Have to give it some thought when I have my<br>
wits how the 3845 port takes either a T1 crossover or a straight<br>
through depending on the other side apparently.<br>
<br>
Anyway, I thought it was interesting to note and share.<br>
<br>
Thanks again for the help.<br>
<br>
