What is CSU/DSU
• CSU/DSU stand for– Channel Service Unit/Data Service Unit
• To ensure that a network interfaces properly with a telephone line, several functions must be performed
• CSUs and DSUs were created to handle those functions

What Does a CSU Do
• A channel service unit, or CSU, is the first device the external telephone line encounters on the customer premises
• As recently as the early 1980s, CSUs were always owned by the telephone company, which leased the devices to customers

What Does a CSU Do
• But during the course of telecommunications deregulation, users were allowed to buy and install their own CSUs
• One of the principal functions of a CSU is to protect the carrier and its customers from any weird events your network might introduce onto the carrier's system

What Does a CSU Do
• Since the Carterphone decision the phone company has been somewhat paranoid
• A CSU provides proper electrical termination for the telephone line and performs line conditioning and equalization

What Does a CSU Do
• It also supports loopback tests for the carrier, meaning the CSU can reflect a diagnostic signal to the telephone company without sending it through any CPE, so the carrier can determine if a problem is one it needs to correct itself
• CSUs often have indicator lights or LEDs that identify lost local lines, lost connections, and loopback operation

What Does a DSU Do
• Data service units - sometimes referred to as digital service units - or DSUs, sit between a CSU and customer equipment such as routers
• DSUs are commonly equipped with RS-232 or V.35 interfaces

What Does a DSU Do
• Their main function is to adapt the digital data stream produced by the customer equipment to the signaling standards of the telephone carrier equipment, and vice versa

Physical Types of CSU/DSUs
• There are many physical types of CSU/DSUs
• These range from table top to rack mount to shelf units
• Let’s look at examples of these

CSU/DSU Interfaces
• When buying a CSU/DSU be sure to get the correct interfaces for the type of access line and other equipment being used
• For example, CSU/DSUs for a Fractional T1 line can get by with a RS-232 serial interface
• Whereas, a full T1 line requires a V.35 style connector on the serial line

CSU/DSU Configuration
• In general just be sure you can hook it to both the demarc and the router that will be used
• There are three basic things that must be done to configure a CSU/DSU for a typical T Carrier or Frame Relay application– Bit Framing– Data Stream Framing– Number of Channels

CSU/DSU Configuration
• Set the bit framing– These are constraints on the basic bit stream
defined by the DS hierarchy– These constraints are required to maintain
signal quality and limited control functions– These bit framing methods include
• B8ZS – Bipolar with 8-zero substitution– Most common
• AMI – Alternate Mask Inversion– Also used

CSU/DSU Configuration
• Then set the data stream framing– At the next level up the bit stream is formed
into frames– Several frame types can be used
• ESF - Extended SuperFrame– Most common
• SF – SuperFrame– Also used– Also called D4

CSU/DSU Configuration
• Finally set the number of channels– In a T Carrier circuit there are 24 possible
channels– The number used depends on the bandwidth
ordered from the service provider– From 1 to 24

CSU/DSU Configuration
• It is also a good idea to verify the clock source that will be used
• In almost all cases the clock source will be the carrier’s network
• Just be sure the CSU/DSU is set to this clock source

Diagnostic Functions
• Many CSU/DSUs just do the standard functions
• They are much more useful if they also include diagnostic capabilities
• Basic diagnostics include line analysis which helps to determine what is wrong with a circuit
• It can measure attenuation, noise, loopback problems, and mode problems

Diagnostic Functions
• Attenuation tests look for excessive signal loss
• Noise on a circuit will drown out the signal carrying the data you need
• Noise must be detected so its source can be determined
• If a line is in loopback mode it will not be able to transfer data
