Your telephony card port uses the standard E1/T1 RJ45 cable pinouts.
It comes shipped with straight-through cables, with pinouts as seen below:
If you require a cross-over cable, you can make your own, however it is best to purchase pre-made to prevent the possibility of improper assembly.
If you do decide to make your own cross-over cables, use specific E1/T1 cables, or CAT5 and make sure you have a good crimper to secure the wires.
