The MVME712x modules are used as the interface between MVME1xx family VMEmodules (such as the MVME167 and MVME197) and their internally connected SCSI peripheral devices.

The MVME712B is designed to be used only in conjunction with an MVME712x board for external SCSI and/or Ethernet connections.

An LCP2 adapter module and a cable are supplied for interconnection between the MVME712 family module and the MVME1xx family VMEmodule.

Features of the MVME712 Family Modules

The features of the MVME712 family modules include:

Four 9-pin multiprotocol EIA-232D serial ports (through the LCP2 adapter) (MVME712x)

One independent printer port (through the LCP2 adapter) (MVME712x)

Small Computer Systems Interface (SCSI) shielded connector bus interface (through the LCP2 adapter) for connection to external devices (MVME712B)
