Features
- The ASM-MN-214 is a 19", 4U high,
rack-mount, hub for Short Range Modems. The hub accommodates up to 14
cards, and supports more than 20 different types of cards.
Any combination of modem cards can be installed. Cards can be removed or
inserted during operation without interference to operation of other
cards.
- Operating over 2-wire, 4-wire or fiber
optic, baseband modems support data rates from 300 bps to 2.048 Mbps.
ASM-MN-214 provides a cost effective and reliable concentration point for
multiple baseband links supporting last mile or campus applications.
- ASM-MN-214 can be powered from either AC
or DC power sources, or from both. Each power supply supports a full rack
of cards, regardless of the type. The hub accommodates two separate power
supplies that back up each other in case of failure. Each power supply can
be replaced during operation without affecting the operation of other
modems (hot swapping).
- The ASM-MN-214 rear panel consists of
fourteen 5-screw, snap-type terminal blocks and fourteen 25-pin, D-type
connectors (one terminal block and one DB-25 connector per card).
- Modems with X.21 or V.35 interface require
an external mechanical adapter. CIA/X.21 can be ordered for converting two
adjacent DB-25 connectors to two X.21 15-pin connectors, CIA/V.35 for
converting one DB-25 connector to a V.35 34-pin connector.
