What (who) is Channel Service Unit - definition
TELECOMMUNICATIONS EQUIPMENT
channel service unit
<communications> (CSU) A type of interface used to connect a
terminal or computer to a digital medium in the same way
that a modem is used for connection to an analogue medium.
A CSU is provided by the communication carrier to customers
who wish to use their own equipment to retime and regenerate
the incoming signals. The customer must supply all of the
transmit logic, receive logic and timing recovery in order to
use the CSU, whereas a digital service unit DSU performs
these functions.

Channel service unit
In telecommunications, a channel service unit (CSU) is a line bridging device for use with T-carrier, which
- is used to perform loopback testing;
- may perform bit stuffing;
- may also provide a framing and formatting pattern compatible with the network;
- provides a barrier for electrical interference from either side of the unit; and
- is the last signal regeneration point, on the loop side, coming from the central office, before the regenerated signal reaches a multiplexer or data terminal equipment (DTE).
