The PathWay® Model 7387 Single Channel RS232 DB25 A/B Switch with Fallback and Remote Port allows the user the capability of sharing a single port interface device connected to the “COMMON” port among two other devices connected to the “A” and “B” ports with remote access functionality.  The Remote port can be used to attain switch position status by using the provided set of Contact Closure pins.  The Remote port can also be used to control the switch position using a separate set of Contact Closure pins.  The Model 7387 is enclosed in a 1U, full rack size, all metal black chassis designed to provide EMI/RFI shielding and fit in a standard 19” rack. 

When in Automatic Fallback Mode, the unit monitors either RD activity or DCD presence on ports A and B.  If activity or presence is lost on the active port, the unit checks if there is activity or presence on the other port and, in the event, that there is activity or presence, the unit switches to the other port.  If there is no activity or presence on either port, the unit will maintain its connection to its present port and continue to monitor both ports.  The user can override Automatic Fallback operation from the front panel or Remote port and force the unit to operate as an A/B switch.

Option: Wide Range Power Module: (Cat No. 517277) CE, RoHS and UL listed table mount power module, 100VAC/240VAC, 50Hz/60Hz in place of the standard power module that is included with the unit.  Has IEC 60320 C14 inlet.  Ideal for international applications.
