Cable Connections to Other Devices
In the first Out-of-Band configuration, the AsantéView Manage-
ment Station (AMS) is connected to a hub using one of the hub’s
AMS Link ports and an AMS Link Extender. In the second, the AMS
is directly connected to a hub using the hub’s RS232 connector
and a straight-through RS232 cable. The third configuration shows
a remote AMS connected to a hub over telephone lines using the
hub’s RS232 connector and a modem.
