1.1 Introduction

The SmartSWITCH SBU128 Backup Unit provides an effective, easy to

implement, automatic backup over the ISDN (Integrated Services Digital

Network) for an X.21 or V.35 PTO Leased Digital Circuit (DLC).

The ISDN Basic Rate Interface (BRI) is provided by a public switched

digital network, enabling simultaneous multi-service connection over a

single pipe, consisting of two 64kbit/s data paths and one 16kbit/s control

channel.

The SBU128 is available as a single channel device, but using both

ISDN 64kbit/s ‘B’ channels providing backup on ISDN for the user at

128kbit/s.

The SBU128 is designed to sit in the data path between the PTO DLC

Network Termination Unit (NTU) and your user equipment, see Figure

1.1.

Figure 1.1 SBU128 sits in the data path

During normal operating conditions, user data passes over the DLC, with

the SBU128 remaining transparent to the system. If a failure occurs on

the DLC, this is detected by the SBU128. After a user defined elapsed

time, the SBU128 dials a remote SmartSWITCH BACKUP unit via the

ISDN line. Upon verification of an acceptable connection the data is

then re-directed over this backup path.

The backup operation is user configured for either automatic or manual

initiation. While the backup data circuit is in use the SBU128 monitors

the failed DLC line and upon detection of its recovery clears the ISDN

call, when data is returned to the DLC line (main leased circuit).

Note that the SmartSWITCH BACKUP product range was previously

known as the CyberBACKUP range, denoted by ‘CBU’ instead of ‘SBU’.

1.3 Product Overview

This user manual is arranged to take you through the basics of the

hardware, then to software set-up and on to the more specialised user

definable software facilities of your SBU128.

SBU128 software configuration is generally not a complex operation. In

many applications once you have correctly configured the hardware and

installed your SBU128s, the default software configuration settings will

suffice to provide reliable backup operation.

In this section there is a brief overview of many of the more specialised,

software configurable, features of your SBU128. Each topic is dealt with

in detail later in this manual.

1.3.1 Network Security

Your SBU128 contains an integral security facility, designed to protect it

from being accessed by unauthorised users via the ISDN.

If the security option is enabled (ANSWER is set to CLID), the answering

SBU128 will only accept a call originating from an ISDN number

matching one of those stored in its file of telephone numbers.

1.3.2 Telephone Number Storage

The non volatile memory will store up to 20 telephone numbers, allowing

you to select a backup telephone number for any particular circuit.

Alternative numbers can be dialled in the event of an unsuccessful call.

1.3.3 Circuit Failure

Your SBU128 can detect a circuit failure if it detects any of the following

conditions:

• No data is received from the DLC.

• No clock is detected on the link.

• The I/DSR signal from the DLC NTU goes to the OFF condition.

• The C/DTR signal from the User DTE equipment goes to the ON

condition.

User selectable time-outs can be independently set for all of the

detection facilities mentioned, except C/DTR from the DTE.
