DS1 Circuit Pack 

This field appears only if the Framing Mode field is 

.

This field selects whether your DS1 circuit pack will send error reports to the 
far-end switch. These reports are useful for network management, and are sent at 
1-second intervals when enabled. This field appears only if the Framing Mode 
field is 

. It is used only with circuit packs that have an integrated channel 

service unit (CSU).

This field, which, appears only if the Framing Mode field is 

.

This field reduces the outgoing signal strength by a fixed amount. The appropriate 
level of loss depends on the distance between your switch (measured by cable 
length from the smart jack) and the nearest repeater. Where another switch is at 
the end of the circuit, as in campus environments, use the cable length between the 
2 switches to select the appropriate setting from the table below. This field appears 
if the Near-end CSU Type field is 

.

 

The entry in this field, used only with circuit packs that have 
an integrated channel service unit (CSU), allows the data link 
to be remotely monitored.

. Consult your Lucent representative if you think you 

may want to use these reports.

. This field administers the transmit direction address 

used for the 

 command with both integrated and 

external channel service units (CSU).
