I have had a series of 8 S-Bus ISDN lines installed on a Panasonic S-ICX phone system, set up as point-to-multipoint - and I am told I need to terminate a line with an ISDN Terminator.

Do I need to terminate all 8 lines, one of each pair, or just one line ?

Thanks

ISDN Terminators are available from Black Box - they are basically 100Ohm resistors across the S Bus.
 
I now have the answer .... basically it is YES - I do need to terminate each one, or ensure the last piece of equipment on each one has termination enabled.
