CYTEC's DX Series Switching Systems are based on 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 nonblocking, 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
expanded from a 64x64 to a 256x256 by adding the de-
sired number of input and output modules. The con-
figurations occur in 64 channel increments so typical
configurations will be 64x448, 128x384, 256x256, etc.
Other possible configurations such as dual 12x12 clock
and data matrices or multi chassis clock and data sys-
tems are also available. The DX Series Matrix is com-
pletely nonblocking 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.

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 add-
ing 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 Dis-
play that lets the operator control any switch and verify switch
status.
