2.2.4.3 Connecting MP-124 to FXS Interface
The MP-124 interfaces with the analog telephone interfaces by connecting to a main
distribution frame (MDF), using a 50-pin Telco cable.
MP-124 Safety Notice
To protect against electrical shock and fire, use a 26 AWG min wire to connect
analog FXS lines to the 50-pin Telco connector.
Warning: To reduce noise interference, use a twisted pair Octopus cable that is
terminated on a metal-hooded 50-pin Telco connector.
To connect MP-124 to the FXS telephone interface:
1. Wire the 50-pin Telco connectors according to the pinouts in the table below:
