I am getting ready to experiment with the Tellabs 2752 echo canceller. I have a 255D shelf (and power supply), but am struggling a little on connecting the echo canceller to a PRI. The shelf has 4 25-pair amphenol connectors. The two on the line side are marked "Receive In" and "Send Out". The 2 connectors on the drop side are marked "Send In" and "Receive Out". I will be connecting the echo canceller between a PRI and our asterisk box. We recieve our PRI on an RJ-45 jack, so I assume I will need to make a cable that connects the "Receive Tip/Ring" pair from a Cat5 and wire it to pins 1 & 26 on the "Receive In" connector and take the "Send Tip/Ring" pair and wire them to pins 1&26 on the "Send Out". The same thing will need to be done for the 2 drop side amphenol connectors so that I can plug an RJ-45 connector in to our Asterisk box. Does anyone have a suggestion on the easiest way to do this? I will make my own cables/connectors if necessary, but I suspect there are already adapters out and I just don't know where to look. I'd love some suggestions on the best pieces to use if I do have to make it myself too. Thanks for any help or suggestions!

That sure sounds like it's Analog trunks to me. I believe you will need a channel bank to go from T1 to 24 ds0's and another to go back to T1. I could be wrong but I don't think so. I don't think that's what you were really looking for as far as an echo canceller. ewr@erols.com wrote:> I am getting ready to experiment with the Tellabs 2752 echo canceller. > I have a 255D shelf (and power supply), but am struggling a little on > connecting the echo canceller to a PRI. > > The shelf has 4 25-pair amphenol connectors.

The 255D shelf supports 16 257X cards, at 24 channels per card, with a variety of signalling modes supported per channel. Fully populated the shelf will echo cancel 384 channels concurrently. It's carrier grade hardware that's now obsolete, but quite good given the average prices for it on eBay - about us$0.50/channel. Its far more economical than the hair replacement treatments needed after trying to get zaptel/mec2 to behave... :-) Hope that helps.

Network tx pair goes to "Receive in" -- similarly your Asterisk-end rx pair goes to "Receive out" and your asterisk tx pair goes to "Send in". I am guessing this shelf can handle 24 echo cancellation cards? It seems a little odd to split the T1s up across 4 connectors but if you're terminating to BIX or something it really does make sense. -A.
