Connecting the ISDN Line Provisioning the NT1 Outside of North America, you might need to provide an external network terminator type 1 (NT1) and the ISDN U cable that connects the NT1 to the ISDN wall jack. Contact your telephone service provider and ask for the following information: • Is an external NT1 and an ISDN U cable required? • Does the telephone service provider provide the NT1 or must you supply it? • If you must supply the NT1, can the telephone service provider provide a list of NT1 vendors? Inside North America, if you have a 761, 765, 771, or 775, you must provide an external NT1 and the ISDN U cable that connects the NT1 to the ISDN wall jack. Contact your telephone service provider for a list of NT1 vendors. If you have a 762, 766, 772, or 776, you can use the internal NT1 in the router. Note Detailed information on provisioning your line can be found in Appendix C, "Provisioning the ISDN BRI Line." In addition, the Cisco 700 Quick Reference Guide contains a form to guide you in gathering the provisioning information. Warning Network hazardous voltages are present in the ISDN cable. If you detach the ISDN cable, detach the end away from the router first to avoid possible electric shock. Network hazardous voltages also are present on the system card in the area of the ISDN port (RJ-45 connector), regardless of when power is turned to standby. Warning Do not work on the system or connect or disconnect cables during periods of lightening activity. Warning To reduce the risk of fire, use only No. 26 AWG or larger telecommunications line cord. 3-4 Cisco 700 Series Router Installation Guide
