  • Page 9: Csu/Dsu

    DIDCSU 2912 Overview CSU/DSU The DIDCSU 2912 can be used in a simple configuration in which it functions as two T1 or E1 CSU/DSU units. Data from the first data port can be mapped to the first network port, while data from the second data port is mapped to the second network port.
  • Page 10: Components

    DIDCSU 2912 Overview The DIDCSU 2912 does the necessary cross-connections to ensure that the local area network signal from Building 1 terminates (or drops) at Building 2, the video circuit is added (inserted), and the outgoing data stream is sent on to Building 3.
