[asterisk-users] Help with MFC/R2

In fact I see 1101 in the rx bits on all channels...

But I have in parallel one old Panasonic Key Phone system (Actually in
production, to be replaced by asterisk), and it's works perfectly and
immediately once I pass the E1 cables to there...

So, the problem is not from Telco...

It seems to me your lines are blocked.

Execute zttool and if you see 1101 in the rx bits, it means the telco
(or whatever you have in the other end) has blocked their side. If
this is a telco line you need to call them and tell them to unblock
your lines.
