ADC Campus-REX2 RS INSTALLING THE CAMPUS-REX2, -REX2

Chapter 1 - Installing and Accessing the REX2

The Campus-REX2 can be installed into either a Campus-Star chassis (paired with a Campus-RS or -HRS Line Unit) or into a Campus-RS or -HRS desktop unit. The , installed into either, provides one end of a High-bit-rate Digital Subscriber Line (HDSL) transmission system. When connected to another Campus-RS, Campus-HRS, Campus-T1®, Campus-768®, or Campus-E1® desktop unit or a line unit in another chassis, the Campus system transports digitized voice, data, and video signals over existing copper wire at an HDSL rate specified by the user from a range of rates up to 4.608 Mbps.

When the Campus-REX2 is installed in a Campus-HRS desktop unit or with a Campus-HRS line unit (or older), only T1, E1, and 768 Mbps data rates are supported.
