Integrators’ Reference Manual for ViewStation EX, ViewStation FX, and VS4000

You must use an external power supply if you use the internal CSU capability of the PRI T1 network interface module.

Channel Service Unit

In North America, the PRI T1 network interface module can be connected to an external Channel Service Unit (CSU). The CSU isolates the PRI from the network, and continues to transmit a signal to the network even if the PRI network interface module loses power or is disconnected. This prevents the line from being deactivated. A CSU is normally used only when the PRI network interface module is connected directly to a telephone company switch, not a PBX.

Outside North America, CSUs are not used with PRI network interface modules.

If you use an external CSU, connect an RJ-45 cable from the CPE equipment side of the CSU to the PRI network interface module.

ADTRAN Atlas 800 Plus E1 Module

Firmware

If you are using an ADTRAN Atlas 800 Plus E1 Module, it must use firmware version G03b or later.

Channel Restarts

Wait two to three minutes after the endpoint has been powered on and the PRI status icon has turned green before making or receiving calls with the ADTRAN Atlas 800 Plus. This allows time for channel restarts on the ADTRAN Atlas 800 Plus E1 module. If you place a call before channel restarts are complete, a Network Congestion message appears on the system. Incoming calls during this time will receive a Far Site Busy message.
