These are passive, relay-based multiplexers
switching from 9 to 25 wire signals such as RS232,
RS422 or TTL in applications including Modems,
Printers or Token Ring.
Their Bandpass is DC to 20 MHz.
These are 19" rack mounted units 3.5" high and 15.6" deep
with power supplies, LED Displays and pre-wired motherboards
which accept the RS Switch Modules. This unit holds up to
sixteen RS Switch Modules and has sixteen switchpoint sta-
tus LEDs on the front panel. It can switch up to 25 wires from
sixteen input ports to one output port, or the reverse, as shown
in Figure 1.

These are built up from the RSS/16x8 Solid State
Modules, which in turn are plugged into pre-wired
RSS chassis. Each module is an individual 16x8
Matrix, and multiple modules can be intercon-
nected to form larger matrix configurations.
The RS/9, RS/15 and RS/25 Modules are built with Type
A relays, switching 9, 15 and 25 poles. Connector types
are subminiature D9, D15 or D25, and either -P pins or -S
sockets can be user specified.

RS/9 SWITCH MODULE
This is a solid state switch module and it is configured
as a 16 by 8 (16x8) matrix. Three separate versions are
built to handle either analog, TTL or RS422 signals. The
16 inputs are wired to a 34 pin header, the 8 outputs to a
20 pin header. The module is full fan out so any input
can be connected to one, several or all outputs.

Switches sixteen individual, two wire RS422 signal inputs to
8, two-wire RS422 outputs as shown in Fig. 2 at up to 10
Mbps. Any input can be connected to one, several or even all
outputs.
This module switches +/-5 volt analog signals and has a typi-
cal ON resistance of 60 ohms. Bandpass is 50 MHz when
terminated into 1K ohms. It can be used as a 16x8 or 8x16
matrix.
This module switches TTL level signals and can be used as
either a 16x8 or 8x16 matrix. Any input can be connected to
any or all outputs.

Switch Modules can be supplied that switch different types of
input and output signals on the same module. For example,
one module might have 16 two wire RS422 inputs switched
into eight single wire TTL outputs.

This is a 19" rack mounted chassis, 5.25" high and 15.6"
deep, pre-wired to accept the RSS Series of Switch Modules.
The unit has one slot that holds the required control module,
as well as slots for up to sixteen RSS/16x8 Switch Modules.
Multiple switch modules can be combined to form larger ma-
trices.

To specify Plug (male) D type connectors, add -P to the Switch
Module part number. Adding -S specifies Socket (female)
connectors. For example, the RS/15-S is built with a submin-
iature D15 Socket connector.
This module is built with a D9 connector and Type A relays
and switches nine wires.
The following mating connectors can be purchased for a small
additional charge.
