Whenever I need to terminate a T1, I’ll usually use a Cisco 2600. A 2610 with a T1 interface can be had for $60. I install these along with a mikrotik pretty regularly, so I thought it would be fun to rig the two together.
I decided to just mock up a face plate, though if you were so inclined I’m sure you could do it legitimately.
As you can see from above, you can’t actually sell a 2600 router with cardboard and duct tape on it. I was really trying to use it as a proof of concept to see if it would even be worth messing with. I do think it looks kinda cool, but not cool enough to bother with 😉 Plus, if I don’t rig something every month or two, I’ll most likely go insane.
