ABOUT THE PRODUCT
The Campus-RS™(Rate Selectable) Line Unit, mated with an RS interface
card in a Campus-Star chassis, comprises half of a High-bit-rate Digital
Subscriber Line (HDSL) transmission system. When connected to another
Line Unit installed in a Campus-Star®chassis or to a Campus-RS Desktop
Unit, the Line Unit can transport digitized voice, data, and video signals over
existing copper wire at a number of different HDSL transmission rates.
The Campus-RS system is compatible, over the HDSL link, with earlier
versions of Campus products. You can connect the Campus-RS Line Unit,
through the HDSL link, to a Campus-E1®, Campus-T1®, or Campus-768®
Desktop Unit or Line Unit. The Campus-RS system is not compatible with
Campus-384®Desktop Units or Line Units.
All earlier versions of Campus products are manufactured to operate at a
single HDSL transmission rate. To establish an HDSL link with an earlier
product, the Campus-RS standard HDSL Operating Mode supports three
preset transmission rates:
•2.048 Mbps (E1)
•1.544 Mbps (T1)
•768 kbps
The interface card mated to the Line Unit determines the
HDSL transmission rates available. Some cards may support
fewer rates or only one rate. See the manual for the interface
card to determine the available HDSL transmission rates for
the system.

About the Product
2 May 29, 2002 Campus-RS Line Unit User Manual
When connecting to another Campus-RS unit, the three standard HDSL
transmission rates are available. In addition, the Campus system can be
configured to support an extended HDSL Operating Mode, as follows:
•Over a single-loop connection, the Line Unit supports rates from 64 kbps
to 2304 kbps in 64 kbps increments, depending on the interface card.
•Over a dual-loop connection, the Line Unit supports rates from 256 kbps
to 4608 kbps in 128 kbps increments, depending on the interface card.
The transmission rate you select depends on the type of copper infrastructure
and the physical layout of the network. The extended HDSL Operating
Modes provide a way to make trade-offs between the reach of the HDSL line
and the transmission rate.
The default setting for the HDSL Operating Mode depends upon the interface
card. If necessary, change the HDSL Operating Mode and associated
parameters through the system configuration menus. Instructions for using
the menus are in the User Manual for the interface card mated with the
Line Unit.
While the Line Unit supports all the rates listed above, the
actual rates available depends on the interface card installed
in the Line Unit. For example, the Campus Fractional Interface
Card support the full range of transmission rates, while the
CSU/DSX-1 Interface Card only supports the T1 standard rate.
The User Manual for the Interface Card provides a list of rates
supported by the card.

HDSL REACH AND TRANSMISSION RATE
Four factors determine the maximum transmission rate and loop length of the
HDSL line:
•the wire gauge of the line
•the condition of the line (presence of bridge taps, splices, and so on)
•whether the line uses one or two loops
•the amount of noise on the line
The following charts show the maximum loop length over the range of HDSL
transmission rates for 26 AWG (.40 mm), 24 AWG (.51 mm), 22 AWG
(.61 mm), and 19 AWG (.91 mm), respectively. The shaded area on each
chart shows a range of expected maximum loop lengths that will provide a bit
error rate (BER) of greater than 5E-8:
•The best case (longest reach) is measured in a noiseless environment.
•The worst case is measured using an industry-standard noise model that
simulates the cable pair in a bundle with 49 other cable pairs each
transmitting with similar frequency characteristics.
The actual reach will fall somewhere between these two cases, and will vary
according to such factors as the condition of the loop pairs, the presence of
bridge taps, splices, line noise, and so on.
Depending upon the desired data rate and wire gauge,
two-loop operation provides between 12% and 47% greater
reach than one loop operation at the same data rate. For
example, for a 24 AWG loop, a unit configured for two-loop
operation at 1152 kbps will have a maximum reach of
approximately 4.6 miles, whereas a one-loop configuration
at 1152 kbps will have a maximum reach of approximately
3.0 miles.

INSTALLING AND
CONFIGURING
THE LINE UNIT
This chapter describes how to install the Campus-RS Line Unit and its
corresponding interface card into a Campus-Star, and how to set up the HDSL
link.
SURGE PROTECTION
To protect you and your Campus-RS devices, ADC recommends the use of a
dual line Network Interface Device (NID) with a gas tube or solid state
composition. The NID can protect both Campus-Star chassis and Campus-RS
Desktop Units.
For surge protection:
•the maximum recommended breakdown voltage should not exceed
300 Vdc
•carbon based protection devices are not recommended
•data line surge protectors can also be used
Make sure the interface card you mate with the Line Unit is
a Campus-RS interface card. The Campus-RS Line Unit is not
compatible with previous versions of Campus interface
cards.
Most lines leased from your local telephone company already
have protection devices installed. Contact your telephone
company to see if your lines require additional protection.
1061.book Page 9 Wednesday, May 29, 2002 8:59 AM

Installing and Configuring the Line Unit
10 May 29, 2002 Campus-RS Line Unit User Manual
Install the NID on the HDSL line between the HDSL jack and the Telephone
Company (Telco) demarcation point.
ADC also suggests providing power line protection for critical circuits in high
lightning areas. Use conditioned AC voltage, furnished through an
Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS), that is bonded to a good facilities
ground. This provides additional protection against voltage transients
entering through the power lines.
INSTALL THE LINE UNIT
To install the Line Unit:
1Install the interface card into the back of the Campus-Star chassis,
following the instructions in the User Manual for the card.
2Ensure that the retaining latch is pulled completely forward and down.
Make sure you install the interface card before the line unit.
Installing the card with the line unit already installed may
cause damage to the card, the line unit, or both.

3Slide the Line Unit into the slot on the front of the Campus-Star chassis
that corresponds to the slot into which you installed the interface card.
Use the guide rails to align the card.
4When the Line Unit is in as far as possible, push the retaining latch in
until it snaps into place. Assuming the Campus-Star power is on, the Line
Unit performs a power-on test. After completing the test, the HDSL LED
flashes red.
COMPLETE SYSTEM INSTALLATION
To complete the installation of the Campus-RS system and ready it for use:
1Install the remote unit. This may be an interface card installed in a
Campus Desktop Unit or an interface card and line unit installed in
another Campus-Star chassis.
2Connect the cables according to the instructions in the Campus-Star or
Campus-RS Desktop Unit documentation.

DETERMINE THE HDSL OPERATING MODE
The Campus-RS Line Unit supports two operating modes:
•Standard Mode provides HDSL compatibility with earlier versions of
Campus products, such as the Campus-T1 Desktop Unit.
•Extended Mode provides a wide range of HDSL transmission rates when
the Line Unit is connected to another Campus-RS product.
The following illustration shows the operating modes available for the
