What DTE interfaces does the 2701 series support?
The Model 2701 supports single DTE interfaces and comes in four versions: V.35 (M34
connector), X.21 (DB-15 connector), EIA-530 (DB-25F), and 10Base-T (RJ-45
connector). See table above for interface options.
Do I need special cables to connect to the 2701 Series?
No, the 2701 is equipped with industry standard interfaces, saving the user
the extra cost associated with non-standard cables. The V.35 version uses a
female M/34 (Winchester) connector. The Model X.21 version, uses a female
DB-15 connector, and can be configured as DCE or DTE. The 10Base-T
version uses a standard RJ-45F connector.
Can the serial interfaces be configured as DTE or DCE?
The X.21 interface can be configured as DTE or DCE; the V.35 and EIA-530 interfaces
are fixed as DCE. 10Base-T Ethernet interfaces are wired as DTE for direct connection
to a hub/switch.
Does the 2701 ship with terminal and network cables?
No, the 2701 ships with user’s manual and power supply (standalone), no terminal or
network cables are included.
What diagnostics are offered with the 2701?
The Model 2701 series offers V.54 compliant Local and Remote Loopbacks. In addition,
the 2701 series is equipped with V.52 compliant 511 test pattern. Diagnostic tests can
be activated via front panel switches, serial interface (Local and Remote Loopbacks), or
through VT-100 and SNMP/HTTP options.
