Multiplexer Hardware Requirements

The 8-port PCI ACC multiplexer consists of the major hardware
components described in Figure 1-2 and shows the components and how
they combine to provide the functionality of the ACC subsystem.

section on "Accessories" for a list of interchange panel and cable
products.

Multiplexer

The multiplexer (or MUX) installs as an I/O interface card in the
HP e3000 computer. The MUX is a one-half length PCI card, which
supports eight synchronous or asynchronous ports at speeds up to
128 Kbps on RS-232 and V.35 ports.

Interchange Panel

An Interchange Panel acts as an intermediary between the MUX and
the Packet Switching Network (PSN). Each individual interchange
panel is designed for a specific serial communications standard, such as
RS-232, and V.35 specifications.

Rack Mounting Plate

A rack mounting plate allows up to two interchange panels to be
mounted in the HP e3000 computer system's rack. Panels can be
mounted in any orientation.
