The M3SR Transceiver is accommodated in a sturdy 19" case of 3 height units, its top being formed by a detachable screwed-down metal cover. After removing this cover, the modules of XT 4410A become visible, which are: Radio Basis KR 4400, Mod. 04 It is formed by several items, namely the mechanical parts chassis and housing, which accommodate the internal transceiver modules.

The RMB connects the modules of XT 4410A to one another and also to the central processor and the I/O interfaces. Serial inter- faces are used for data transmission and remote control purposes. Parallel interfaces serve as discrete inputs and outputs and control for instance an externally connected filter and / or am- plifier.
