Connecting the Model 3550 DSU to a DTE The DSU’s rear panel has both a 25-pin EIA-232-D/V.24 connector and a 34-pin ITU-T V.35 connector (used for higher operating speeds). You can use either interface. When the unit is equipped with a TDM/Flex, either of these interfaces can be used as Port 1. The TDM/Flex provides an additional interface to be used as Port 2. This is a D-type connector. If the port is to operate at a speed greater than 19.2 kbps, use the V.35 adapter to provide an interface be

Installing the Model 3551 DSU The initial installation procedure for the Model 3551 DSU requires the installation of a rear connector plate onto the rear of the COMSPHERE 3000 Series Carrier. After the initial installation, the DSU can be installed or uninstalled by simply removing the DSU from the carrier. Procedure 1. At the rear of the carrier, set the tab on the rear connector plate into one of the slotted grooves on the carrier’s backplane. Loosely fasten the screws. Make sure the rear co

5. At the front of the carrier, hold the DSU vertically with the latch on its faceplate in the open position. Then, insert the circuit card into the top and bottom circuit card guides for the slot that contains the rear connector plate. Slide the DSU into the slot, aligning the circuit card with the rear connector plate until the connectors seat firmly into the back of the carrier. Press the faceplate latch to secure the DSU into the carrier, rotate the circuit pack lock into the closed position

7. At the rear of the carrier, connect the appropriate DTE interface cable (EIA-232-D or V.35) to the rear connector plate. For an EIA-232-D interface cable, connect the EIA-232-D cable to the top DTE connector on the rear connector plate. For the 25-pin V.35 interface, a V.35 adapter is shipped with the unit. To connect a V.35 adapter to the 25-pin V.35 connector, perform the following steps: — Connect the 25-pin end of the V.35 adapter to the bottom DTE connector of the rear connector plate. T

Addressing the Unit A unique address must be assigned to each control and tributary DSU in your network. You can assign an address within the range of 1 through 255. NOTES: — Do not assign the number 192 as a network address. This number is reserved as a broadcast address. — The numbers 191 and 255 cannot be assigned to a DSU that has a DBM. However, addresses can be assigned in any order; they do not have to be sequential. It is recommended that only odd-numbered addresses be assigned to DSUs s
