Features

The Control Panel Interface card provides front access to all the physical interfaces of the DS1 or DS3 Controller cards. It provides four RJ-48C DS1 connections when using the DS1 Controller and two sets of DS3 SMB interfaces when using the DS3 Controller. Additionally, the Control Panel Interface Card provides the RS-232 and 10/100Base-TX Ethernet management connections for system configuration and control. Status indicators are provided for critical, major, minor, and ACO alarm relay status, and an Alarm Cut Off (ACO) Switch is also provided to silence external audible alarms.

Note: In the event of a power failure to the unit (5V in the backplane), there are relays that will cut 1 to 3 and 2 to 4. These relays are hard-wired to +5V, so al long as there is power, the cut-through does not happen (there is no software control of this feature).
