Re: Devices across the street from a remote controller

[Larry Bolhuis <lbolhui@xxxxxxx>]

Yes,  I believe that call it a 5394 and a CSU/DSU.

Unfortunately once you must use the telco to get there you are usually
restricted to equipment meant to be connected that way.  If you can find a local
access provider with a fiber loop or similair setup then you may be able to get
on that with your traffic.  We had that here in Grand Rapids for quite a while.
You would use devices provided by the telco to connect twinax to the fiber on
each end but it was their fiber and their devices.  They also provided Ethernet
and Token-ring this way.  The key is that they had already fought the
municipality for all the rights to hang the fiber around town.
