ADC Campus RS Destop Unit OPERATING WITH EARLIER VERSIONS OF CAMPUS PRODUCTS

Installing and Configuring the Line Unit

OPERATING WITH EARLIER VERSIONS OF CAMPUS PRODUCTS

Campus-RS Desktop and Line Units are fully compatible with most of the earlier versions of Campus products, including Campus-E1, Campus-T1, and Campus-768. The Campus-RS Desktop and Line Units are not currently compatible with Campus-384 products.

Furthermore, if a Campus-RS unit is connected over an HDSL link to an earlier Campus product, and if either unit has the HDSL Transceiver (XCVR) Mode set to AUTO, the HDSL link may not operate properly.

When operating the Campus-RS product with an earlier version of the Campus products, to avoid any problems with link startup or operation, it is recommended that the Transceiver Mode be set as follows:

•Campus-RS = MASTER

•Campus E1/T1/768 = SLAVE

If one or both units are already set to AUTO and the HDSL link is active, disconnect the HDSL link, change the settings as recommended, and reconnect the link. This will assure the link integrity on any subsequent startups.

This situation does not apply to a circuit with two Campus-RS units. You may leave the units set to their default setting of AUTO, and they will operate properly.
