Introduction Chapter 1 PRODUCT OVERVIEW The T3SU 300 is a multiport DSU/CSU (data service unit/channel service unit) that provides access to T3 services. The unit provides a cost-effective, versatile approach for migrating T1 services to T3. The TDM (time division multiplexer) multiport design allows you to share the cost of a T3 line between multiple applications.
V.34 modem (1200217L2 only). Advanced dial-out on trap capabilities through the built-in modem allow the T3SU 300 to contact remote hosts and alert them to DSX-3 network conditions (without dedicated management connections). The T3SU 300 is designed for either desktop use or installation in a 19-inch rack.
TELNET TELNET provides a password-protected, remote login facility to the T3SU 300 that allows a remote user to control the T3SU 300 through the terminal menus. Only one TELNET session may be active at a time.
HSSI Card The optional HSSI card plugs into one of the three card slots on the rear of the T3SU 300. With optional HSSI cards installed, the total 44.2 Mbps bandwidth of the T3 can be divided among the total number of ports to provide multiple data channels over the T3.
WARRANTY AND CUSTOMER SERVICE ADTRAN will replace or repair this product within five years from the date of shipment if it does not meet its published specifications or fails while in service. For detailed warranty, repair, and return information refer to the ADTRAN Equipment Warranty and Repair and Return Policy Procedure.

Chapter 2 UNPACK, INSPECT, POWER UP Receiving Inspection Carefully inspect the T3SU 300 for any damage that may have occurred in shipment. If damage is suspected, file a claim immediately with the carrier and contact ADTRAN Technical Support (see the back cover of this manual). Keep the original shipping container to use for future shipment or verification of damage during shipment.
Chapter 2. Installation and Operation The ADTRAN T3SU 300 MIB is available in the support section of the ADTRAN Web page at www.adtran.com. Customer Provides The customer provides an interface cable for each port used. Each cable should be either HSSI or V.35.

Perform this test to verify the integrity of the portion of the DS3 link connecting the selected port of the T3SU 300 and the remote DTE. This test is non- intrusive to the three other ports. See Figure 6-6.
DTE Loopback This test is used to verify proper operation of the link between the T3SU 300 and the terminal equipment. During this test, all data sent by the terminal equipment is looped back to the terminal equipment. A block diagram illustrating the loopback point and the signal path is shown in Figure 6-8.
Perform this test to verify the integrity of the portion of the DS3 link connecting the local DTE and the selected port of the remote T3SU 300. All other ports on both the local and remote units are unaffected.
