XPANSION ODULES
3C18136 3C18141 3C18146
LinkBuilder MSH expansion modules cost-
effectively increase the number of available
ports. Media may be mixed for maximum
flexibility.
Fiber-Optic Expansion Module (3C18136)
Adds six fiber ST ports to a coax or fiber
repeater module.
Coax Expansion Module (3C18141)
Adds six coax ports to a coax or fiber
repeater module.
Transceiver Interface Expansion Module
(3C18146)
Equipped with slots for two Transceiver
Interface Modules (see page 19), cost-
effectively adding transceiver connections
for a variety of media to LinkBuilder MSH
coax or fiber repeater modules.
