[Asterisk-Users] ISDN X-Over
Hi all, I have just been reading an article on the asterisk-doc site about ISDN X-Over cables. The article mentioned the converting of an NT1 to make this possible, has anybody got the information required to modify a BT NT1? Or any information on the BT NT1. Thanks in advance.

Stefan, Peter, Thanks for the replies guys. I have looked at the web page and will work on it over the weekend. My next step will be to find out hoe the CO lines connect, but that's another project.

Yes, as I wrote, I was reading to fast... However, termination may be done by simply connecting a terminated multiplug to the card and power is only needed for phones without own power source. I have e.g. a Siemens Gigaset cordless phone connected to my internal port, so I need no power. But anyway, I believed, David was writing about ISDN monitoring, so my answer was inadequate, I confess. May we PLEASE leave out the tar and feathers?

Extremely easy and cheap if you cut a cable in half, rewire them using a screw joint, where you can also put the resistors in. Depending on the device you want to connect, you might need bus powered, THEN you really need your NT1 (or a card that provides this feature).
