Setting up fax server with Brooktrout TR1034+P8H-T1-1N to receive faxes through TN464F DS1 board in Avaya Definity (has an amphenol connection.)

1. Brooktrout support said that Avaya sells a cable that would meet our needs. But Brooktrout did not know the current part number.
It is a 4 or 8 conductor cable that is amphenol on one end and RJ45/RJ48 on the other pairing 1&2 and 4&5
I believe we will need such a cable that is 25 ft long.
I was unable to find a part number in the short search I did.

2. Brooktrout support noted that a TA120 CSU pack is not necessary and will interfere.

3. Also Brooktrout support noted the settings that the fax board is looking for on the phone system side:
PRI configuration
The PBX should be the T1 clock master
Framing = ESF
Line Coding = BZ8S
Signalling = 5ESS, protocol=NI2
Channel 24 should be the D channel.
Channel 1-8 should be active for bidirectional communication
Channel 9-23 should be disabled/inactive
Incoming calls should start on port 8 and hunt backwards to port 1
On a call collision or Glare: the phone system should yield
