One other point about the  AIPs relative to the  HSSI/DSU ; you may not be
interested in this feature , but the AIPs implement traffic shaping- ie You can
set Peak and Average rates and burst size; you could use this to subrate your
traffic -should you be in a situation where this is desirable.


I havent looked around to check out any new ADSU type products since mid 95,
but it used to be that you could not do this with an ADSU.
