What Is an IPC-1600?
The AT&T Intelligent Ports Card, Model 1600 (IPC-1600) is a sixteen port, intelligent, serial Input/Output (I/O) controller with an 80C186 16-bit microprocessor running at 12.5 MHz. The sixteen RS-232, asynchronous ports are wired to RJ-45 (10-pin) fanout modules via two 80-conductor ribbon cables.
The IPC-1600 operates with the AT&T UNIX System V/386 Release 3.2 and later releases on the following machines:
■AT&T 6386E Work Group System
■AT&T 6386/25 Work Group System
■AT&T 6386E/33 Work Group System
■AT&T 6386E/33 Work Group System Model S.
The IPC-1600 growth kit (COMCODE 405980145) provides the following:
■One AT&T IPC-1600 board (COMCODE 405977729).
■Mounting hardware consisting of a mounting bracket and two 2.25-inch, long-shank screws (COMCODE 406112680).
■One AT&T Intelligent Ports Card, Model 1600 (IPC-1600) User’s Guide, Select Code 305-920 (COMCODE 105747182).
■One AT&T IPC-1600 to 16-ports fanout cable assembly (COMCODE 405980178) which provides two 7-foot (2 meters) long, 80-conductor cables for connecting an IPC-1600 board to a 16-Ports Fanout module.
■One 16-Ports Fanout module providing sixteen 10-pin RJ-45 type modular connectors (COMCODE 405977869).
Note: Separately orderable modular cables and adapters are necessary to connect I/O devices to the serial ports. See Appendix B, “Serial Input/Output Device Interface” for modular cable and adapter information.
