Hello,
I have a customer that has a Toshiba CIX670 that I have been maintaining. I am surely no Toshiba expert but have figured things out along the way over the years. My background is Nortel and the Avaya IP Office.
They are switching phone providers and this has turned out to be trickier that I thought. Typically, it's a no brainer just swap the cords check the setting and be on the way but apparently the customer had a T1 for their voice service before and not a PRI and Toshiba has a different card for a PRI. The porting gets bumped and I go to order the PRI card (BPTU1A) and the supplier asks me if I need a RPRI cable kit.
This is where I need help. The RPRI cable kit is for a connection to a CSU. I haven't used a CSU in a very long time for any of my T1/PRI connections. Does the Toshiba require a CSU? How would I know?
Thanks,
Steve
