Re: [nsp] Assymetrical DS3 errors?

Telco Systems also makes DS3 attenuators, usually used in conjunction with
their M13 muxes, but I believe they're available separatelay.

These attenuators ship with their muxes, and they're not always necessary,
so it may be worthwhile to get your feelers out there before going direct.

:> Can you recommend a good place to order custom length BNC cables prefab?

:Two of my associates that do K-12 school networking found that 75 ohm
:3 dB attenuators in the line carrying the signal to their DS-3 cards
:made the errors go away. This "fixed" two DS-3s terminating in Cisco

:That probably makes more sense than buying killer long cables and
:using them as attenuators.
