Now consider Output 1 of Frame 0. This signal is connected to Input 1A

of the first PE-33016 Port Expander. See

Figure 27

.

Figure 27. Detail of one PE-33016 shown in

Figure 26

.

In this example:
• Only Input 1A and Output 1A are presently functional.
• Following the rule that unused connectors should be terminated,

Output 1B is fitted with a 75 ohm BNC terminator.

• Input 1B is pre-wired to Frame 1, so there is no place for a termi-

nator. In this case, termination will be provided by an LD-33100

Loader board installed in output board slot “1-32” of Frame 0. Fur-

thermore, in this example all 16 output slots of Frame 0 should have

an LD-33000 installed.

• When the system is upgraded to 1024 x 512, the LD-33000 boards

will be removed and replaced by output boards. Cabling to the port

expanders is already in place.

The concepts in this example apply equally to systems with PE-33008

Port Expanders. For example, they would apply to a 1024 x 1024 system

that is pre-wired for expansion to 2048 x 1024 (similar to the system

shown on

page 54

, where LD-33100 Loader boards would be installed

in place of output boards in Frames 4 through 7).
