Figure 3-1. On-Premises Metallic-Cable Configurations
Off-Premises Cabling
When DS1s reside in different locations, they are typically connected via a transmission facility (such
as a metallic cable configuration) that is leased from the local exchange company (LEC). This
facility usually consists of a line and T1 repeater combination. The customer premises equipment
interfaces to a DS1 network facility (T1 line) via NCTEs.
