INTRODUCTION AND TECHNICAL DATA
PURPOSE
A Remote Bus Extender Slave Module MRB01XS (Figure 1-1 ) is located in each of the three
right-hand slots (A, B and C) of a remote extension chassis. Fibre optic cables link each
MRB01XS to a corresponding master module (MRB04XM) in a local extension chassis. The
master and slave modules operate together as part of an interface between the I/O modules in
the remote extension chassis and the processor modules (MPPs) in the main chassis.
Figure 2-2 shows how the MRB01XSs are linked by fibre optic cables to the MRB04XMs and
then by ribbon cables to the MPPs.
This document is intended to provide a general understanding of the function of the MRB01XS
sufficient to enable basic maintenance operations to be effected in the field.
NOTE
The chassis that contains the MRB01XS will be referred to as the ‘remote’ chassis throughout
this document.
