Installing and wiring telephones and trunks
94 Installing and Connecting the MDF and Telephones
The 4-type protector is the preferred device. For installations not using primary protection,
4-type protectors should always be used. When the 3-type protector is already installed, a
separate sneak current protector is required.
The multi-pair protector units and the off-premises cabling must be locally engineered.
Connected multi-pair protector units (female 25-pair connector) are recommended.
Table 15: Analog line circuit protectors shows the recommended protectors.

Telephone restrictions for exposed environments
Analog telephones connected to TN746B Analog Line circuit packs cannot be installed in an
exposed environment.
Digital Out-of-Building Telephone Protection
Digital out-of-building telephones require protection at both building entrances. The 4C3S-75
Enhanced Protector and the ITW Linx Enhanced Protector can be used to protect digital
telephones and digital line circuit packs. These units provide primary and sneak current
protection. The 4C3S-75 is equipped with a heat coil for sneak current protection, and the ITW
Linx is equipped with replaceable fuses for sneak current protection.
Note:
Note:
The TN2181 16-port, 2-wire digital line circuit pack may not be approved for
some out-of-building uses. Contact your Avaya representative for more
information.
