A multi-channel traffic node consists of:

• SNM-1000 Node Control Modem
• Traffic modems

The SNM-1000 can manage up to 30 traffic modems using an EIA-485 bus.
The traffic modems recommended by Comtech EF Data are the SDM-300A
CDM-550, CDM-600, or CiM-550 Satellite Modem, (however, other
Comtech EF Data modems may be used). The SNM-1000 has an EIA-232
user port for requesting circuit setup and termination, sending and receiving
service terminal messages, installation and diagnostics. A multi-channel traffic
node configuration is illustrated in Figure 6-1.
