CTI Products NCB/AY with Serial Interface - Manual

Network Combiner NCB/AY
Connectivity for Serial Links, T1, E1, X.25, RS232
Usage
The NCB/AY™ Network Combiner is a
member of CTI Product's growing family of
WON
™ Wide Operating Network devices
that, when used in pairs, allows multiple
L
ON W ORKS ® networks to be connected in
realtime, spanning distances beyond the
reach of conventional network wiring.
The communication channel spanning the
distance between local L
ON W ORKS networks
can be any serial communication channel
(virtual or physical) supporting RS232
asynchronous serial data, such as fractional
T1, X.25, or microwave digital channel
banks.
