2.2DESCRIPTION

The Patton Model 1110ARC fiber optic rack card modem is the rack mountable counterpart to Patton’s Model 1110A self-powered, fiber optic modem. Communicating full or half duplex over dual optical fibers, the Model 1110ARC supports data rates to 19.2 Kbps and distances to 4 miles.

Like all fiber optic modems, the Model 1110ARC is inherently immune to RFI/EMI noise, ground loops and transient surges. The carrier may be switch selected as either “Continuously On” or “Controlled by RTS”. Four pairs of bi-level LED indicators monitor TD, RD, RTS and CD. A single LED monitors power.

The Model 1110ARC is designed to mount in Patton’s 2U high 19” rack chassis. This 16-card chassis has a switchable 120/240 volt power supply and mounts cards in a mid-plane architecture: The front “brains” half-card can be plugged into different rear “interface” cards. The Model 1110ARC is available with a choice of two interface cards: one with SMA connectors, and one with ST connectors. Both cards are equipped with an HD-26 female connector for the RS-232 interface.

3.0 CONFIGURATION

This setting describes the location and orientation of the Model 1110ARC’s configuration jumpers. There are two sets of jumpers to set: those on the front “brains” card and those on the rear “interface” card.

3.1 FRONT CARD SETTINGS

The jumpers on the Model 1110ARC “brains” card set RTS/CTS delay and carrier control. Figure 1 (below) shows their location on the PC board.

JP1 and JP2: RTS/CTS Delay

The combined settings for jumpers JP1 and JP2 determine the amount of delay between the time the Model 1110ARC “sees” RTS and

when it sends CTS.
