3 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
3.1 A/B Switch Modules
All X.21 PatchSwitch modules with A/B switching are capable of switching either rear port A
or rear port B to rear port C. This switching is accomplished using the front panel toggle switch
in conjunction with an enable signal from the backplane. See
Figure 4-6 for a block diagram
showing the switching configuration.
