Interchange Panels

Overview of the Interchange Panels

The Multiplexer is designed to connect to an interchange panel, which "breaks out" the signal into the ports. These panels are "passive" distribution panels, accepting the input from the MUX and distributing it to the network.

This section describes the various models of interchange panels that are compatible with the 8-port PCI ACC product. Each interchange panel is designed for a specific serial communications standard.

The following interchange panels that are compatible with the 8-port PCI ACC Multiplexer. Individual illustrations for each of the interchange panels appear later in this section.

RS-232 Interchange Panel
