Connection is made by entering the port number or port name.
Disconnection is via entering a control code or lowering an RS-232 control lead. Either the port being controlled or the originating control port can lower a control lead to force a disconnect. The Access Switch is especially suited for accessing DCB modems, DSUs, multiplexers and hubs locally or via modems from a remote location. The AS-24M is a 24 channel master unit with six input ports and 24 output ports. The Access Switches have a minimum of two input ports allowing both local control and remote dial-in access.
