The Ethernet interface features dual 10/100 Base-TX, RJ-45 shielded connectors for (an active /

16-span).
Rear panel with two 50-pin female Telco connectors (DDK 57AE-40500-21D) (shown in Figure
2-3) is required for a gateway equipped with up to 16 E1/T1 spans. Rear panel with RJ-48c
connectors (shown in Figure
