ABOUT THE PRODUCT
The ADC®Campus-Flex®RS (HDSL Rate-Selectable) Interface Card
provides a connection between a High-bit-rate Digital Subscriber Line
(HDSL) and a network or other digital equipment.
The product’s unique ability to accept data streams through one DSX-1 and
two high-speedserial interfaces allows you to split 24 channels of voice, data,
or video signals among one or more of the ports.
The HDSL line always operates at a constant T-1 (1.544 Mbps) rate. The data
ports of the Campus-Flex RS Interface Card are not limited to this rate.
The Campus-Flex RS Interface Card installs into one of the following to
create a Campus-RS system:
•Campus-Star chassis, along with a Campus-RS®Line Unit
•Campus-RS Desktop Unit
This comprises half of the HDSL transmission system. When connected to
another Campus-RS or to a Campus-T1®Desktop Unit or Line Unit, the
Campus-RS system cantransport digitizedvoice, data, and videosignals over
existing copper wire at T1 rate.
The Campus-Flex RS Interface Card must be installed in a
Campus-RS Desktop Unit or with a Campus-RS Line Unit. It
cannot be installed in anolder Campus desktop unit or with an
older Campus line unit.

About the Product
1-2 Campus-Flex RS Interface Card User Manual
INTERFACES SUPPORTED
For maximum flexibility, thetwo data ports of the Campus-Flex RS Interface
Card support the following interfaces:
•V.35
•RS-232
•RS-449
•RS-530
•RS-530A
•X.21
A separate adapter is available for each interface. This adapter converts
signals from eachof the two serialdata portsofthe Campus-FlexRSInterface
Card into the interface format. Select the adapter(s) according to the network
equipment to which you are connecting the card. See “Pinouts” on page A-3
for a listing of each type of interface.
The Campus-Flex RS Interface Card converts incoming data,control signals,
and timing into the card’s internal format. Then the desktop unit or line unit
converts this format to an HDSL/SDSL line format for high-speed
transmission over a local telephone-grade copper network.

About the Product
Campus-Flex RS Interface Card User Manual 1-3
CAMPUS-FLEX ARCHITECTURE
An HDSL transmission line connects two Campus-RS units. The
Campus-Flex RS Interface Card provides a link between the system HDSL
transceiver and the local communication equipment. The figure below shows
a simplified system architecture.
The Campus-Flex RS Interface Card provides full-duplex transmission at a
maximum rate of 1.544 Mbps (T1 rate). During normal operation, the local
site data communication equipment supplies digitized data streams to the
local Campus unit DSX-1 and data ports. The local unit multiplexes DS0
channels from the DSX-1 port and digital data from the data ports to channels
in the HDSL frame. Then the remote Campus unit demultiplexes the data
from each timeslot of the HDSL frame, routes it to the appropriate port, and
transmits the data to the remote equipment.

COMPATIBILITY
When mated with a Campus-RS Desktop Unit or Campus-RS Line Unit, the
Campus-Flex RS Interface Card is compatible, over the HDSL link, with
another Campus-RS unit, as shown in the following illustration.
Unlike other Campus-RS products, the Campus-Flex RS Interface Card
supports only a Standard Mode T1 rate. To connect the Campus-Flex RS
Interface Card to a different Campus-RS product, you must set the following
configuration options on the remote interface card:
•Set the HDSL Operating Mode to Standard Mode
•Set the Standard Mode HDSL Rate to T1.
See the remote interface card user manual to set these configuration options.
The Campus-Flex RS Interface Card is also compatible, over the HDSL link,
with the Campus-T1, as in the following illustration.
Since the Campus-T1 unit is already set to operate at a Standard Mode T1
rate, no adjustment to the HDSL rate is necessary for this application.

INSTALLING THE
CAMPUS-FLEX RS
INTERFACE CARD
You can install the Campus-Flex RS Interface Card into either the
Campus-Star (in conjunction with a Campus-RS Line Unit) or the RS
Desktop Unit.
INSTALLING THE CAMPUS-FLEX RS INTERFACE
CARD INTO ACAMPUS-STAR CHASSIS
To install the Campus-Flex RS Interface Card into a Campus-Star chassis:
1Install the Campus-Flex RS Interface Card into a Campus-RS Line Unit.
2Connect the data cables.
3Install the Campus-RS Line Unit into a Campus-Star chassis.
Installing the Campus-Flex RS Interface Card into a
Campus-RS Line Unit
Make sure you install the Campus-Flex RS Interface Card into
a Campus-Star chassis (with a Campus-RS Line Unit) or a
Campus-RS Desktop Unit. The card will not operate if it is
installed in an earlier version of these Campus products. For
details on compatibility, see page 1-4.
Before installing the Campus-Flex RS Interface Card, make
sure there is no line unit installed in the corresponding slot on
the front of the Campus-Star chassis. The card is not
hot-swappable. Installing the card with a corresponding line
unit installed may damage the card, the line unit, or both.

Installing the Campus-Flex RS Interface Card
2-2 Campus-Flex RS Interface Card User Manual
To install the Campus-Flex RS Interface Card in a Campus-Star chassis:
1Slide the card into the guide rails in the desired slot on the rear of the
Campus-Star chassis.
2Gently press the card into place until it is seated firmly in the rear
connector.
3Use the two screws on the card to secure it into place.
4Continue with the steps in “Connecting the Data Cables” on page 2-6.
A Campus-RS Line Unit, with a correspondingslot on the front
of the Campus Star chassis, must be plugged in at the other
side to work with the card. See “Installing a Campus-RS Line
Unit into a Campus-Star Chassis” on page 2-3.

To install a Campus-RS Line Unit into a Campus-Star chassis:
1Making sure that the retaining latch is pulled completely forward and
down, slide the Campus-RS Line Unit into the slot on the front of the
Campus-Star chassis that corresponds to the slot into which you installed
the Campus-Flex RS Interface Card. Use the guide rails to align the card.
2Connect one endof the data cables tothe data ports (see “Connecting the
Data Cables” on page 2-6).
3To connect the other end of the data cables, see the Campus-Star user
manual.
4When the Campus-RS Line Unit is in as far as possible, push the
retaining latch in until it snaps into place. With the Campus-Star power
on, the Campus-RS Line Unit performs a power-on test and the HDSL
LED flashes red.
5To set up and configure the system, see Chapters 3-5.
Install the Campus-Flex RS Interface Card before the
Campus-RS Line Unit. Installing the card with the Campus-RS
Line Unit already installed may damage the card, the line unit,
or both.
