  • Page 14: Hardware Description

    The following sections describe the system hardware components. Description The AccessBuilder 4000 system consists of a chassis assembly which contains one of two available main processor boards, power supply, indicator lights, and two slots for I/O cards of your choice. The main processor board is available with either an Ethernet, or a Token Ring LAN interface.
  • Page 15 System Description The main processor board has Flash ROM for program storage, DRAM for software operation, NVRAM (non-volatile RAM) for configuration storage, and built-in Ethernet or Token Ring capability. The Ethernet version provides AUI, BNC, and 10BaseT connectors (switch selectable), as shown in Figure 1-3 to connect to the on-board Ethernet port.
