Verilink PRISM 3002 (34-00277) Product Manual - Manual (Page 8)

1-2 G ENERAL
An innovative design eliminates clocking problems on the high-speed data ports.
The unit uses Flash memory allowing firmware upgrades in the field eliminating
the need for taking units out of service for an extended time or returning units to
the factory for updates.
When connecting local area bridging or routing devices to a T1 network, other
CSU/ DSUs are out of the LAN management loop. The critical T1 connection
point is under control of the existing SNMP management system, providing
seamless integration of LAN and WAN, and eliminating the need for a separate
CSU/ DSU management system.
The PRISM 3002 may be provisioned through the terminal interface. The chapters
in this manual are arranged as follows:
1 General - Describes product features, specifications, and Verilink ordering
numbers.
2 Installation - Describes unit mounting, port connections, and powering.
3 Hardware Configuration and Testing - Describes hardware, including the LED
