Able to accommodate routers, multiplexers and servers with aV.35, RS-232, X.21, RS-422/530 or 64k/G.703 interface, the Patton 2530connects to digital 4-wire services such as DDS and Clear Channel. ThePatton 2530 can also be in a campus network over private twisted pairs. The Patton 2530 incorporates rate adaptation for both network and DTEinterfaces: DTE data rates supported by the Patton 2530 include 1.2, 2.4,4.8, 9.6, 19.2, 38.4, 56 and 64 kbps. Network data rates include 2.4, 4.8,9.6, 19.2, 56 and 64 kbps (dedicated). The Patton 2530 carries a fullcompliment of on-board diagnostics, including telco (CSU) loop, V.54compliant local and remote loops and a V.52 BER test pattern generator/detector (511 & 2047).
