Preface
About this Guide
This operator’s guide contains installation and
operation information for the COMSPHERE
r
3600 Series
Data Service Units (DSUs), Models 3610 and 3611. The
Model 3610 is a standalone unit while the Model 3611 is
carrier-mounted.
There are two types of Model 3611 DSUs, modular and
non-modular. The Modular 3611 DSU has contacts at the
rear of the circuit card. The contacts plug into the
COMSPHERE 3000 Series Carrier, allowing the circuit
card to be removed without having to disconnect the DTE
cables. The non-modular Model 3611 DSU has connectors
mounted onto its circuit card; however, the DTE cables
must be disconnected before the DSU can be removed
from the carrier. In this guide, references to the
Model 3611 DSU (or to the carrier-mounted DSU) apply
to either the modular or non-modular 3611 DSU, unless
otherwise specified.
It is assumed that you are familiar with the functional
operation of digital data communications equipment.
