Product Overview
The MIIM scanner communicates with the MIIM patch panels to collect data regarding changes in the physical structured
cable plant and to drive patch guidance LEDs on the panels. The scanner is connected to each patch panel through
industry-standard RJ45 patch cords. The scanner also provides power to all the patch panels through the communication bus
cables.
Each scanner can be connected to forty-eight 24-port MIIM patch panels, providing for a total capacity of 576 channels in
a cross-connect environment. The following figure shows the general architecture of a MIIM System, and illustrates how the
scanner communicates with both the server and MIIM patch panels.
