The VC Node Mux is a galvanically isolated 16:1 multiplexer. The output of the multiplexer can be assigned via jumpers to DA1/DA2 or DB1/DB2.
By using EIA-422 interface a distance of 1000m may be bridged. It is controlled by a data vector. The maximum number in a chain is limited to 8 VC Node Mux (8 VC Node Mux = 128 channels). A concatenation by a short ribbon cable is possible. (lateral connectors, cable included).
