Re: Hardware Question - Communications Cards

They are local on our campus. Line drivers. A couple are multipoint
and that's my fallback - tie them all together at the backboard
(hopefully it'll work). But, I'd rather snag a card from the 270
carcass.

If you can convert the comm lines to multipoint you'd only need one of
the existing comm ports and you'd probably save money on line charges as

well.

Here's the deal. We replaced our 270/2248 with a 520/7450 that a

company was no longer using. Tonight, I'm replacing our 720 with an
E4A. I still need to run a couple of devices from the 720 on 5294

(stop

laughing now) controllers. I'll run them off the 520 but I need a
couple of more comm ports.

From the config below, can someone tell me if any of the 270 cards

will

work in the 520 to run SDLC?

Thanks.
