This equipment has been tested and found to comply within the limits for a Class A
digital device pursuant to Part 15 of the Federal Commun ications Commission (FCC)
rules. These limits are designed to provide protection against harmful interference in a
commercial environment.
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed and used in accordance with the user manual, can cause harmful interference
to radio communications.
There is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this
equipment causes harmful interference to radio or television reception—which can be
determined by turning the equipment off and on—try to correct the interference by one
or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the
receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC Rules. On the rear, side or bottom of
the unit is a label that contains the FCC registration number and other information. If
requested, provide this information to the telephone company.
• All direct connections to the network lines must be made using standard plugs
and jacks (compliant wi th Part 68). The following tables list the applicable
registration jack universal order codes (USOCs), facility interface codes (FICs), and
service order codes (SOCs). These are required to order service from the telco.

• If the unit appears to be malfunctioning, inform the telco and disconnect it from
the network lines until the source of trouble is determined to be your equipment
or the telephone line . If your equipment needs repair, it should not be
reconnected until it is repaired.
• The unit has been designed to prevent harm to the network. If the telephone
company finds that the equipment is exceeding tolerable parameters, it can
temporarily disconnect service. In this case, the telephone company will provide
you advance notice if possible.

Overview
High-Low Application
This user manual describes the DI U 2131 High-Low module within
Verilink’s Access System 2000 (AS2000) platform. This module
operates in conjunction with a CSU—either an SCC 2020, TAC 2010
or DIDCSU 2912—to multiplex a high-speed and low-speed
application onto a single T1. The latest firmware revisions, SCC
2.06 and TAC 1.6, enable the user to configure all of the modules at
the far end node, not just the controller. Passwords are used to
control access between the near and far ends.
NOTE:
The High-Low module multiplexes up to 24 channels from two
synchronous ports—one high-speed for aggregating multiple data
channels and one low-speed for subrate data—and transfers the
information onto a single T1 line.
This manual requires familiarity with standard
telecommunica tions te rminol ogy, appl icat ions, an d practi ces.
There are two data ports on the DIU 2131 rear c onnector module,
the HLM 2532:
•
Port 1 is a high-sp eed V.35 synchro nous port , pr oviding n × 56
(default) or n × 64 kbit/s of bandwidth .
•
Port 2 is a low-speed RS-232 synchronous port using a single
DS0, providing spee ds of 2.4, 4.8, 9.6, 19.2, 28.8, 38.4, 56, or
64 kbit/s.
The front modules and their rear connector modules are shown in
the figures below.

The DIU 2131 can be in a node controlled by an SCC or NCM
controller module. These controllers can be managed by the Craft
interface, SNMP or Node Man ager. Remotely located users can also
use Telnet over Ethernet or SLIP to access the Craft interface. See
the user manual for the controller in your node.

Sample Application
Quick Set-up
The DIU 2131 multiplexes data from a high-speed and low-speed
application onto a shared T1 l ine. The high-speed appli cation could
be a file server, router, bridge, video teleconference codec, or any
device with a synchronous connection. The low-speed application
can be up to 64 kbit/s, or one T1 timeslot. A typical application is
an automatic teller machine.
This chapter describes all of the steps required to set up the DIU
2131 for a typical appl ication. Your settin g s may be different, for
example the number of timeslots needed for your high-speed
application.
Refer to the appropriate controller module and management
software user manua l s for more detailed information. This chapter
focuses on the DIU 2131 config uration.
The DIU 2131 is ideally suited to provide connectivity between
branch offices and data processing hubs within the banking
industry.

Physical Configuration
The following steps are required at both ends of the point-to-point
connection before config uring the firmware.
DS0 1 is for a low-speed teller application connected to the
Port 2, RS-232 connecto r.
DS0s 2-5 are for a 220 kbi t/s router connected to the Port 1,

The T1 has ESF framing and B8ZS line coding.

The number of channels required by Port 1 depends on
what transmission mode you select (either 56 kbit/s or
64kbit/s) and the desired aggregate rate. Port 2 never uses
more than one timeslot.
Since the Craft interface does no error checking, you must

different ports. Use the followin g format example s to enter

Once elements for an application are installed, configured, and
running, you need a way to make sure that your expectati ons and
requirements for performance are met.

DIU 2131 Front Panel
The DIU 2131 front panel has three LEDs for each customer data
port:
Near End Loop

Far End Loop LED
STAT LED
The Near End Loop LED lights yellow when t he associa ted d ata po rt

The Far End Loop LED lights yellow when th e associated data port is
looped at the far-end DIU. This occurs only if the loop-up command
was sent by the near-end DIU to the far-end DIU over the T1 circuit.
The STAT (DIU 2131 status) LED is a tri-color indicator which shows
one of the following conditions for each data port:
