Interconnections
The external connection is through a 50-pin MDF connector with the
NTBK05 carrier cable A0394217.
CEPT interface
For the Conference of European Postal Communications (CEPT) interface,
the connection to the external digital carrier is through the NT5K85 DTI cable
assembly. It converts the 120 ohms D-connector to 75 ohms coaxial cable.
The impedance is switch set. The switch-settings table at the end of this
chapter describes the options. See Table 235.
