Tim is right. I didn't think about your question. However my answer is
correct for Ethernet cables, but NOT for the cable(s) that came with your
PM3. Those are clearly T1 cables. The pinout is:
On the back of the PM3 (or any CSU/DSU)
Pair 1&2 RX
-----------
Network Receive (R1)
Network Receive (T1)
Pair 4&5 TX
-----------
Network Transmit (R)
Network Transmit (T)
(Or the other way around dependent on which end you are looking at CPE or
Telco)
Technically, T1 (& 56/64k) lines are supposed to be RJ48C connectors, not
RJ45. I certainly can't tell you what the difference between them is maybe
someone else can explain. Also, a 56k connector has a different pinout. I
know that on the Telco side, the RJ48X jacks short out when you remove the
cable.
