Electrical Interfaces - RESEARCH CONCEPTS RC4000 User Manual

RC4000 ACU Boardset

2.1.2 Electrical Interfaces

The interfaces available from each RC4000 board are detailed in this section. For context, typical uses of
individual interfaces within an antenna system are described. Differences to these interfaces and how
they are accommodated for a particular mount will be described in Appendix B - Mount Specific Data and
in Appendix C - Enclosure Specific Data.
Multiple connector types are used by the boardset. The following table assigns each connector type a
number and shows which connectors on each board use that type. Section 2.1.2.5.x (x = type) will
provide details of the connector types.
Type Description
1 Phoenix Terminal Header
2 Molex Friction Lock Header
3 Right Angle Shrouded Header
4 Right Angle JTAG
5 Drive Terminal Block
6 Phoenix Header
7 USB
8 Tyco Vertical Header
9 Unshrouded Header
10 Phoenix Double Header
11 SMB
12 Ethernet
As each interface is defined, its connector designation, PCB board nomenclature, pin count and
connector description/type will initially be shown in bold. For example:
Designation
J1 "AC Power"
If there is no nomenclature on the PCB for a particular connector, it will be shown as "unmarked".
