Do it all the time. Gotta love those alarm pairs.

The routers connected to the TSUs will both be DTE. He'll want to set
clock on one TSU to "Internal" and the other to "Line" (or maybe they call
it "Network").

My adc/kentrox csu/dsus require a dip switch change to work back-to-back.
Really? I've never needed to do that, just set one end to provide clock.
Maybe the Kentrox ones use a dipswitch, but the TSU series, IIRC, have
a little LCD display and arrow buttons to navigate it.
Also check that the number of channels (start and end) is the same
on both, typically start at 1, number of channels 24. and that they're
both set for the same linecode, framing, and speed. Recommend that you
use B8ZS, ESF, 64K. Shouldn't be critical as long as they're both set
the same.
Note that the Ciscos won't probably be happy with frame encaps on this
setup unless you've configured one of them as a frame switch. Try HDLC
or PPP.
It would be helpful if you could provide more info than "not working"
in your message. Things like status light indications on the TSUs,
interface status on the routers, etc. would be useful.
