[comp.dcom.lans] T1 and RJ11 specs

mw3s+@andrew.cmu.edu (Martin Weiss) (07/28/87)

The RJ series of specifications were developed by the FCC and should be
available from them.  Regarding T1, it is more than a throughput definition.
A T1 specification is currently being developed by an ANSI committee (the
number escapes me at the moment) chaired by the president of Verilink (last
name is Buckley, I believe).  Data Communications has an article in a recent
edition of the status of the standard.  Apparently, an error in the FCC
drawing led to the switching of the T1 and R1 leads on the connector.
Furthermore, Business Communications Review has a tutorial article on T1,
focussing on the SF and ESF concepts.
