ISU 512 User Manual

Dialing from the ISU 512 is accomplished in a variety of ways:

Manually from the front panel keypad.

Manually from up to ten stored numbers.

Automatically through an RS-366 dialing port used in video conferencing
applications; a special RS-366 Y cable provides the two RS-366 interfaces
for this application (part number 1200120L1).

V.25 bis in-band dialing (used in applications such as LAN/WAN bridg-
ing).

Dialing while DTR is enabled. From Stored Number 0.

Dialing from the VT 100 terminal interface.

The ISU 512 (U interface) also supports dedicated leased 2B1Q services. This
provides a dedicated point-to-point service (as in a limited distance modem or
leased line application) with no dialing necessary.

The ISU 512 is designed to operate in a dual-port mode for videoconferencing
at 112/128 kbps. This allows end-to-end compatibility when communicating
with a video system that is utilizing two Switched 56 DSUs or a dual-port
ISDN terminal adaptor. For this application, 56/64 kbps is transmitted over
the V.35 interface and the RS-530 interface. An RS-530 to V.35 adapter (part
number 1200072L1) is available to provide the necessary V.35 interface for the
second port. Also, a special RS-366 Y cable (part number 1200120L1) provides
the two RS-366 interfaces for this application. For convenience in communi-
cating with multiple video sites, the ISU 512 transparently switches between
the dual-port mode at 112/128 kbps and the single-port mode of 336/384 kbps
without user intervention and reconfiguration of the unit.
