DX/256x256 SERIES

SOLID STATE DIGITAL SWITCHING SYSTEMS

CYTEC's DX/256x256 Series Switching Systems are based on a solid state switch

fabric. The Standard DX system is designed to switch TTL, CMOS, LVTTL, IRIG,

RS232 and RS422. Input and output buffers are used to convert to RS422 and/or

RS232 signal levels. The DX is capable of switching data rates to 80 Mbps NRZ.

The DX Matrix is a non blocking, full fan-out configurations from 64x64 up to 256x256.

Control options include RS232/ IEEE488, LAN or LCD Keypad Manual Control.

The DX/256X256 Series are 19" rack mounting units and

are built as either Mainframe or Expansion Chassis. The

Solid State Digital Matrix is modular, capable of being ex-

panded from a 64x64 to a 256x256 by adding the desired

number of input and output modules. The configurations

occur in 64 channel increments so typical configurations

will be 64x128, 128x384, 256x64, etc. Other possible con-

figurations such as dual 32x32 clock and data matrices or

multi chassis clock and data systems are also available.

The DX Series Matrix is completely non blocking and full

fan-out.

Custom configurations are available upon request. Most cus-

tom systems wire out the rear panel Input/Output connec-

tions to a required connector type that is different from the

standard 64 pin male header or 78 pin female D Connectors.

This wiring is priced on the basis of labor and materials.

MANUAL CONTROL

This Virtual Manual Control Software allows a remote opera-

tor using a PC to view matrix Status and control switches

using a full Graphical User Interface.

DX/256X256 MAINFRAME

The Standard Mainframes are built with power supplies,

user specified Control Module and optionally Keypad LCD

Display Manual Control. The system is completely modular

by adding the desired number of DX/64 Input and Output

Switch Modules defined on page 2 of the bulletin.

The expansion chassis is identical to the mainframe in size

and function. The expansion chassis, however, is built with-

out a dedicated control module, manual control or power sup-

plies. Instead, it is designed to be both powered and con-

trolled by one of CYTEC's MESA Control Chassis detailed in

the MESA Bulletin. Ribbon Expansion Cables connect the

expansion chassis to the MESA.

This module provides remote control via both RS232 Serial

and IEEE488 Talk/Listen interfaces as detailed in Applica-

tions Bulletin AP-5.

This optional module allows control over a 10BaseT Ethernet

Local Area Network via TCP/IP protocols as described in Ap-

plications Bulletin AP-5.

This local control supplies a front panel Keypad and LCD

Display that lets the operator control any switch and verify

switch status.
