Chapter 1. INTRODUCTION

CIC-20

LVDS to HSSI

Interface Converter

While the CDM-600 modem is capable of data rates up to 20 Mbps, its many interfaces
do not include the HSSI format.

In order to accommodate the HSSI data formats and overhead, the CIC-20 converter
attaches to the rear of the modem at the 25-pin data connectors. No external power is
required and all settings are made on the CIC-20 using one switch.
