5.2 Common CDS-100 Diversity Switch Kits
When assembling a Comtech EF Data Diversity Switching System, in addition to purchasing the
desired modem pair (one Online/Traffic Modem, one Offline/Backup Modem), you must
purchase a Diversity Switch Kit tailored to your modem choice. Each kit provides the CDS-100
Diversity Switch module and the control cables required for connection of the switch to the
modems in the diversity switching configuration.
Kit usage, on a per-modem basis, is as follows:

Separately sold kits are available to facilitate connection from the modem to various user
terrestrial data interfaces, excluding Ethernet (which requires user-provided CAT5 Ethernet cables
and Layer 2 switches). Examples of such kit usage are provided for each modem in the “Modem-
to-User Data Interface Connections and Examples” sections in this chapter.
