[cisco-voip] Telecom Guy vs Network Guy.....

[Jason Aarons (US)]

I haven't see a customer buy a managed CSU/DSU in 5 years....maybe if you have 512K frame relay and wanted a provider to be able to give your graphs they might sell you a managed CSU/DSU.

So my coworker and I have been having some discussions on best way to move forward (I'm the new Network Guy, He is the old Telecom guy ;-)

Currently we use managed CSU/DSU's for terminating our voice PRI's.  This way we can loop the circuit and test, etc.  we also have things wired to use the T-bert for more testing.

I would like to bypass this and go straight to the VWIC's on the Router.... making it cleaner and less to troubleshoot as we have had CSU's dieing lately.

I know I can loop the VWIC both local and remote.  Can I do more testing from the router that would justify the move away from managed CSU's?

Would love to hear what others are doing.

Thanks

Scott
