2.5. 16-Port Connector Box EIA-232 for 64-port Async Controller (DCCG091)
The 16-Port Connector Box is a subsystem with four 16C554-compatible UARTs that support sixteen
RJ45 EIA-232 serial ports. It is connected to the 64-Port Async Controller with an EBI (External Bus
Interface) cable. When used as third connector box linked to the same 64-Port Async Controller, it
requires an additional power supply to power the third and the fourth ones.
Features
•
16 async ports, each with a data interchange rate of up to 115,2 Kbps
•
EIA-232D compatibility
•
Full set of modem control signals (including Ring Indicator and Carrier Detect)
•
Surge suppression circuitry
A 0,4-meter EBI cable comes together with the connector box. This cable can be used to link another
connector box that can be either another EIA-232 or an RS-422A connector box.
Standards
This connector box meets the following electromagnetic emissions and safety standards:
Emissions:
•
FCC Part 15, class B
•
DOC CSA C108.8 and ICES003
•
EN 55022
Safety:
•
US recognized, UL 1950
•
CSA Certified, CSA C22.2 No. 950
•
IEC 950 Safety (TUV) EN (60950)
2.6. 16-Port Connector Box RS-422A for 64-port Async Controller (DCCG092)
The 16-Port Connector Box is a subsystem with four 16C554-compatible UARTs that support sixteen
DB25 RS-422A serial ports. It is connected to the 64-Port Async Controller with an EBI (External Bus
Interface) cable. When used as third connector box linked to the same 64-Port Async Controller, it
requires an additional power supply to power the third and the fourth ones.
Features
•
16 async ports, each with a data interchange rate of up to 115,2 Kbps
•
RS-422A compatibility
•
Surge suppression circuitry
A 0,4-meter EBI cable comes together with the connector box. This cable can be used to link another
connector box that can be either another EIA-232 or an RS-422A connector box.
