All the wiring on the user's side of the NT1 is the user's responsibility.
Your ISDN service supplier is unlikely to be able to help you with any problems
you have here.
In the case of the BRI NT1, the standard (I.430) is very specific. You must
use RJ45 plugs (although the standard does not express it in exactly these
terms). These are most commonly found in structured wiring systems based on
Category 5 twisted pair. This standardisation is very important because you can
connect as many as eight devices to a BRI NT1.
If your NT1 is providing a PRI, you will have to use whatever cables are
suitable for the sockets that are provided. Unfortunately, these are can vary
according to the ISDN supplier. They might be two miniature co-axial sockets,
RJ45 sockets, or even screw-down connections. The standard that covers this
(I.431) allows some leeway. This not usually a major problem, since you are
allowed to connect only one device to a PRI NT1.
In the discussion below, all the distances cited assume that you are using
Category 5 cabling. However, other types of cabling are also suitable such as
AT&T PDS, Category 4, and Category 3.
In addition, these measurements apply
only to the BRI. I.430 makes no mention of any distances at all - it only
describes what the characteristics of the wiring should be. The lengths of the
cables contribute to these characteristics. You may therefore see
other values for distances quoted in other sources. Neither source is
necessarily wrong, it just depends on the type of cable that you're using.
