*Use for all non-Drop and Insert and T2/E2 balanced applications.
In order to simplify the cabling between the CDM-600 modems and the CRS-150
Redundancy Switch, all G.703 signals are carried between modems and switch
on the BALANCED connections, regardless of the choice of balanced/
unbalanced connectors on the CRS-150 front panel.
The user should not be concerned about this – the modem signals the
appropriate port type (balanced or unbalanced) to the CRS-150, so correct
operation of the ports is assured.
