2.2  GENERAL PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The Model 2500 Series CSU/DSUs operate either synchronously

or asynchronously over 4-wire circuits up to 64 kbps.  Rate conversion
allows operation with a variety of DTE devices.  Diagnostics include
V.54 and V.52 loopback tests, as well as CSU loops.  Configuration is
accomplished by either externally accessible DIP switches or RS-232
software switches (user provides terminal).  Nine easy-to-read front
panel LED indicators monitor data and control signals.  The rear panel
presents both RS-232/V.24 and V.35 DTE connections.

The Model 2500 Series is AT&T compliant and  supports DDS,

Switched 56, Clear Channel 64 and other digital services available from
major service providers including AT&T, Sprint and MCI.  Dedicated
models can also be used as a high speed modem for private twisted
pair.  The Model 2500 Series is available in standalone or in rack-card
configurations (only standalone versions are covered in this manual).
