I just received a Wildcard TDM400P by FedEx yesterday. I noticed that the FXO/FXS modules use connectors similar to Ethernet. Now, i want to connect the TDM400P to the PSTN connector in the wall, and also to a regular analog phone. Both the PSTN conn and the phone use smaller connectors, typical for analog phones. I searched the "official" docs and the Wiki, there's good information about T1 cabling and whatnot, but not much about analog lines. I could make my own cables, but i don't know how to connect the larger Ethernet-style connector to the smaller analog-style one (which pins go to which?). Any help is appreciated. Thanks, -- Florin Andrei http://florin.myip.org/
Just use a standard phone cable. It will seat properly. -----Original Message----- From: asterisk-users-admin@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-admin@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Florin Andrei Sent: Friday, July 16, 2004 5:12 PM To: asterisk-users@lists.digium.com Subject: [Asterisk-Users] PSTN/phone/FXO/FXS cabling issue I just received a Wildcard TDM400P by FedEx yesterday.

Line 1 is always the center two pins. Line2 (on a two line analog jack) are the pins just to the outside of the center two pins. Now you know why the center two pins are pair 1 and the pins to the outside of them is pair 2. The rj11/12 jack will plug into the wider rj45 just fine. You just have to make sure you center it when plugging it in.
