DSU III AR Interface Pinouts
Q:
A:
The following charts give the pin assignments for the III AR interfaces. They can also be found in the DSU III AR User Manual.
The DSU III AR has an eight-position modular jack labeled TELCO. The connector is used for connecting to the network when the unit is configured for either dedicated or switched operation.
Pin | Name | Description |
---|---|---|
1 | R1 | Transmit Data from DSU to Network-Ring 1 |
2 | T1 | Transmit Data from DSU to Network-Tip 1 |
3-6 | - | Not Used |
7 | T | Receive Data from Network to DSU-Tip |
8 | R | Receive Data from Network to DSU-Ring |
The primary DTE should be connected to either the EIA-232 DTE connector or the CCITT V.35 DTE connector. The maximum cable lengths recommended are 50 feet for the EIA-232, and 100 feet for the CCITT V.35.
The V.35 connector is recommended for use with data rates above 19.2 kbps. The EIA-232 connector works up to 56 kbps with a low capacitance cable or with the external transmit clock option selected. The primary DTE rate is configured from the front panel. The primary DTE can operate in asynchronous or synchronous modes.
To prevent possible radio frequency interference emissions, a shielded cable is required.
