Overview
The ACCULINK
r
DSU/CSU acts as an interface between the T1 digital network
and the customer premises equipment, converting signals received from the DTE
(Data Terminal Equipment) to bipolar signals that can be transmitted over T1
lines. Typical applications include shared access to network-based services,
Local Area Network (LAN)/Wide Area Network (WAN) interconnection, and
fractional T1 network applications.
In addition to the T1 network interface and the DTE Drop/Insert (DSX-1)
interface, the Model 3162 provides two synchronous data ports.
