  • Available DTE/DCE Selectable
  • Standard mounting configuration: 170 Controller Slot

DESCRIPTION:

The Extreme Copper TEP400 Series Ethernet Port Module is designed with the demands of the Traffic and ITS markets firmly in mind. Based on Digi, the Extreme Copper Ethernet Port is designed to be installed in a Standard 170 Controller located on the corner of an intersection or beside the highway.

The Extreme Copper Ethernet Port is temperature hardened to operate from -34˚C to +74˚C, making it ideal for operation in harsh environments while not sacrificing any features. All components are protected from physical damage by a metal cover. The TEP400 Series Ethernet Port Module is dimensionally and electrically designed to fit in a single slot of a standard 170 Controller.

The Extreme Copper TEP400 Series Ethernet Port Module provides an EIA-232 Asynchronous communications channel. The TEP400 Series Ethernet Port Module is a 170 plug-in module with EIA-232 activity LEDs on the front edge, which communicates over industry standard IEEE 802.3 networks using both TCP (point-to-point) and UDP (point-to-multipoint) protocols. All EIA-232 LED Indicators are on the Front Panel.

The TEP400 Series Ethernet Port Module has LED indicators for 10/100 and Half/Full Duplex Network Communications.

The Main Data Port is available on the 170 Controller’s male 44 pin edge connector (PCB 22/44); located at the rear is a DB9 Female connector accessible from the Front Panel of the module. The Network port is a standard RJ45 modular jack connector accessible from the Front Panel. DIP switches are externally accessible. The TEP400 Series Ethernet Port Module is powered directly from the Model 170 Controller’s Edge Connector (PCB 22/44) and from an auxiliary connector.

FUNCTIONAL REQUIREMENTS:

The TEP400 Series Ethernet Port Module interfaces to the 170 Controller using the Controller’s Main Port EIA-232. The Main and User Serial Ports are EIA-232 Asynchronous communications and support data rates of 1.2, 2.4, 9.6, 19.2, 38.4, 57.5, and 115.2Kbps. The TEP400 Series Ethernet Port Module Interface meets IEEE 802.3 and ANSI 8802-3 Standards, and supports 10/100 Mbps. The Auxiliary Port is available and, as an option, configurable to operate as a DCE or DTE. The TEP400 Series Ethernet Port Module has an option to enable or disable Dynamic DCD.
