I'm just back from the client's site and failed to perform any tests. When connecting with a straight cat5 cable to the telco's E1 socket I got a red status led and RED alarm on the TE410. However when reconnecting the PBX's cable, the telco's socket led went back to green. On the other hand, I tried connecting the PBX's cable to the TE410 and got a green led and REC status. What could be wrong?
