| Smart Proto Cable (SPC) - Cisco Compatible Multi-Protocol Serial Cable - 530A, EIA-530, RS-232, and RS-449. The options are selectable via DIP switches built into the SmartProtoCable (SPC) DB25 connector
- The DTE/DCE option is selectable via a DIP switch. When the DCE option is chosen, the clocking provided by the Cisco router is passed onto the network element. When the DTE option is chosen, clocking is provided by an intervening element, i.e. modem
- SmartProtoCables are stocked at many lengths. But, can also be custom manufactured to meet specific installation requirements. For shorter cables, (less than 10') the SPC eliminates the need to add cable extensions. Fewer connections improve reliability by reducing the number of possible points of failure in the network
- Saves Initial Installation Time
Protocol interface can be easily changed in the field without any disassembly, precision soldering, or connector re-assembly
- Saves Post Installation Time
Cable dressing does not need to be disturbed because of an interface change. Just re-option the SPC to match the desired protocol
- Simplifies Ordering Process
A single cable can support up to five different interfaces. All you need to provide is the required length
- Costs Less The SPC is comparably priced, and depending on the length purchased, costs less than the "single minded" Cisco Smart Serial Cable
