These are the 2RU compact routers and matching control panels:
The CP3201 (a 1 RU panel) is special case not listed in the tables above: it controls 32 sources and
1 destination. It does not “correspond” to any router and is used only in a Compact Router Series
network. (See
Routers
The 16×16 routers can switch any of 16 inputs to any of 16 outputs and the 32×32 routers can
switch any of 32 inputs to any of 32 outputs. The 8×8 routers switch 8 inputs to 8 outputs. The
16×4 routers switch 16 inputs to 4 outputs. The 32×4 routers switch 32 inputs to 4 outputs.
With the exception of the machine control routers (CR16-PR and CR32-PR), all the compact rout-
ers are X/Y routers having n × m crosspoint matrices. An input can be routed to any or all of the
outputs.
The machine control routers (also called port routers) are point-to-point routers. An input can be
connected to at most one output. (The connections are RS-422 and bidirectional, typically with
commands in one direction and responses in the other direction.)
Each of the two CQX (“clean and quiet”) routers routes any of 16 inputs to 2 “clean and quiet” out-
puts or to 6 auxiliary (normal) outputs. For the clean and quiet outputs, the router performs smooth
transitions. The transitions are governed by transition type and transition rate, selectable on the
CP1602-CQX control panel. The CQX routers also provide 2 bypass inputs. The 2 clean and quiet
outputs switch to the bypass inputs if the router loses power. There are no 2RU clean and quiet
routers at present. The CQX routers also provide a GPIO connector, supporting 16 inputs and 4 out-
