As I mentioned to Mr. Newhall in a private message, I actually have a matched
pair of these cards complete with data compression daughter cards.

The pair I have were manufactured by "Newport Systems", then a subsidiary of
Cisco.  The cards are called "LAN2LAN cards" and seem to plug directly into
either the T1 or the CSU/DSU.  I have not used them myself; we received them in
a "trade-in" system from one of our clients who *had* been using them in a pair
of Novell boxes.

I probably can't tell you much more than that, but if anyone wants the ones I've
got, I can let them go cheap as they were part of a "trade-in".
