BB-232BSS4 4-port Buffered Serial Smart Switch Features Communicate with four devices from one serial port 8 kb Transmit and Receive buffer Each port can be independently configured RS-232 data rates up to 115.2 kbps Setup software for Windows 98, ME, 2000, XP and Vista Power supply required, not included, sold separately Introduction Ordering Information Intelligent and versatile, Model BB-232BSS4 serial data switch provides communication Model No. Description to four devices from one serial port. Each port has a dedicated UART and an 8K byte Transmit and Receive buffer, allowing each ports data rate, data format, and protocol to be BB-232BSS4 Four-port Buffered Smart Switch configured independently. The Master port can send and receive data from one Slave port while the other Slave ports continue to buffer data. The Master can also broadcast the same Accessories Sold Separately message to two or more Slave ports at once.The switch can also be configured to send data BB-SMI6B12V-P230C1 Power Supply, 12 Vdc, 6W 500mA, 2.5mm Plug, automatically to the Master port from each of the Slave ports when data is present with an International AC Input. Interchangeable AC blades (NATAM, EU, UK, Australia, China) optional preamble identifying the port. It can also provide two-way communications between the Master port and one Slave port at a time. Switching and control is accomplished BB-232CAM Modem Cable, DB9 Female to DB25 Male, 1.83 m (6 ft) through user-defined three or four character command strings. These control sequences are BB-9PAMF6 Serial Adapter Cable, DB9 Male to DB9 Female, 1.83 m (6 ft) stripped from the data stream, making the switch transparent to the Slave devices. BB-9PAMM6 Serial Adapter Cable, DB9 Male to DB9 Male, 1.83 m (6 ft) Switches can be cascaded to expand the BB-232BSS4 to more than four ports. Two units can also be used, back-to-back, to provide automatic connection between devices over a Specifications single data channel. LEDs indicate when the unit is powered up and which port is selected to send data to the Master port. Included CD contains set-up software. A 12Vdc power Serial Technology supply with a 2.5mm (positive tip) phone jack is required (sold separately). Interface RS-232 asynchronous Master Port Connector DB25 female (DCE) The Master port is a DB25 female connector configured as DCE providing direct connection Slave Port Connectors (4) DB9 male (DTE) to an IBM PC compatible or other DTE device. When connecting the Master port to a modem, the Master port of another BB-232BSS4, or other device configured as DCE, a Data Rate 1200 to 115.2 kbps null modem adapter is required (sold separately). Slave ports are DB9 male connectors 7 or 8 Data bits, Even, Odd, or No Parity (Master does not support Data Format configured as DTE for direct connection to a modem or other DCE device. When connecting 7 Data bits with no parity), 1 Stop bit (fixed). the Slave ports to a PC compatible or other DTE device, a null modem adapter is required, Flow Control Hardware (RTS/CTS) or None not included, sold separately.
