Interface Cables available from Eicon Networks
Corporation
The Eicon 1550/1551 can connect to Customer Service Units (CSUs) or Data Service
Units (DSUs) which support one of the V.24, V.35, EIA-530, V.36, or X.21 interfaces,
including compatible Eicon Networks Corporation Eiconcards (such as the C series)
using a V.24 cable.
The following table lists the most common connections supported by the VHSI port,
and specifies the part number of the required Eicon Networks Corporation cable. For
information on making your own cables, see “Interface Cable Specifications” on
page 131.
To use an interface, simply connect the appropriate cable. The Eicon 1550/1551
recognizes the cable and automatically configures the port for that interface. Consult
the documentation which came with your networking software for more information
about port configuration.
