These modules may have either the UP/DOWN switch type or the ON/OFF slide switch
type. Each type is illustrated below.

When connecting two bridge/routers back-to-back with CSU/DSU link modules, a null-modem
cable is required to crossover the pins on the links. Crossing over the pins allows two
bridge/routers both configured as DTE interfaces to be connected together.
Switch number 1 determines whether the
ATL-
CSU/DSU link module will generate clocks or
receive clocks. When switch 1 is down (on), the normal position, the module receives clock
signals from the connected network. When switch 1 is up (up), the module will generate clocks.
When a pair of IOLINK routers are connected back-to-back with CSU/DSU link modules one
module must be set to generate clocks and one module must be set to receive clocks.
On 64 Kbps units only, switch number 3 determines the mode of the
ATL-
CSU/DSU. When
switch 3 is down (on), the
ATL-
CSU/DSU is in DDS (Digital Data Service) mode for normal
connection to the 64 Kbps digital service. When switch 3 is up (off), the
ATL-
CSU/DSU is in
LDM (Limited Distance Modem) mode for back-to-back connection with a null-modem cable.
On 56 Kbps units, the position of switch 3 is not a factor for back-to-back connection with a null-
modem cable. Switch 1 must still be set as noted above.
A DSU/CSU crossover cable would be constructed as follows: 1 --> 7
2 --> 8
7 --> 1
8 --> 2
