Channel interface board and channel cable connector
The channel interface board, connected to the channel cable connector box, handles all IPDS communications and handshaking with PSF on the host when the NPS/IPS is receiving data over a channel. (It is not used when the NPS/IPS is printing data using TCP/IP.)
