I have 15 incoming PSTN lines. T1 is not an option at current location. I want to put in an Adit 600 with 2 8-port FXO boards. The adit will then connect to * via a digium t1 board. I configure zaptel.conf for the T1. What other parts would be needed? How do the PSTN lines connect to the Adit, standard rj11 jacks? It looks to be about a $2500 investment and I need to know if there is anything special I am missing.
The Adit has a 50 pin D connector that is like the old SCSI connectors. To connect your phone lines, you either want to get a punch down block that has a 50 pin connector on it, or possibly a device with RJ11 style jacks and a 50 pin connector. Then you connect it with a 25 pair cable with 50 pin connectors on either side.
Go to any reputable supplier near you and they should be able to help
you look at and find what you are comfortable with to use for
installation.

Install an RJ21 and cable to your Adit. As Steve mentioned the Adit has 2 50pin connectors. They are female. An RJ21 is a 66M150 Block mounted on a bracket and wired to 2 50 pin connectors mounted on the same bracket. These connectors may be either male or female, but generally female.
See http://www.siemon.com/e-catalogXML/ datasheet.aspPN=157C&FAM=S66PrewiredMSerie&P=5739 for an example.
Go to your local telecom distributor, probably who you are ordering your Adit from, and get a prewired block and 2 25pr cables to connect your adit. If you are not going to ever exceed 24 lines then you may only connect 1 25pr able.
