2.2 DESCRIPTION

The B&B Model 2011 asynchronous to synchronous converter plugs directly into a local asynchronous DTE (terminal, PC, etc.) and connects that DTE, via RS-232 cable, to a synchronous DCE. When the same set-up is installed on the remote end, the local and remote DTEs can communicate over the synchronous link.

Drawing power from either the synchronous or asynchronous RS-232 interface, the Model 2011 needs no AC power or batteries to operate and supports RS-232 data rates from 64 Kbps. Because the Model 2011 automatically adjusts the synchronous data rate to match the asynchronous DTE's output rate, no data rate strapping is

necessary. The Model 2011 derives clocking externally from the clock of the synchronous DCE, and imposes no limit on data block size. Characters may be up to 11 bits long.

Measuring only 3.2" x 2.0" x .75", the Model 2011 is housed in a sturdy ABS plastic case. It comes fully equipped with a DB-25 male connector and a DB-25 female connector, which plug directly into the synchronous and asynchronous ports.
