Applications
The QPD841 Quad Serial Data Interface (QSDI) card is used to connect
the switch to a variety of communication devices and peripherals. Any
RS-232-C compatible device can be connected to any of the four serial
ports.
The standard application for the QSDI card is to connect the switch to the
system console. This can be either a direct connection if the console is
located near the switch, or through a modem for remote maintenance.
Bell 103/212 compatible dumb modems are recommended to connect
a remote data terminal. If a smart modem (such as a Hayes modem) is
used, select the dumb mode of operation (Command Recognition OFF,
Command Echo OFF) before connecting the modem to the asynchronous
port.
Serial data interface connector J1 is a standard RS-232-C DB-25
connector that connects port 1 of the QSDI card to outside peripherals.
Connector J2 is non-standard in that it contains the connections for
