Procedure
1. Plug the DDS network interface cable into the
DSU jack labeled LINE.
U.S. – select either end of the cable
Canada – select the 8-pin end
2. Plug the other end of the cable into the modular
jack (USOC RJ48S) provided by the circuit
provider.
If the remote DSU is also connected to the network, the
DSU's green OK indicator lights and the Alrm indicator
goes off. The Health and Status screen no longer displays
a No Signal message.
If connecting the DSU to a LADS network, there are
distance limitations that govern the use of DSUs on the
network. Table 2-2 summarizes these limitations.
