The need for reliable, flexible, and cost effective
patching, monitoring, alarming, and testing of data
communications circuits has not diminished with time. The
product solution fulfilling this requirement , the
�Dynapatch�� is and has been synonymous
with outstanding quality for more than two decades. The
Dynapatch� products have a long standing history of
reliability, durability, and ruggedness. Independent
laboratory testing confirmed the product�s resilience by it
being unaffected by more than five thousand patch insertions
and extractions.
The Dynapatch� pioneered the normal-through patching
technique. Normal-through connections are achieved
without the use of any switches, cords or plugs. It provides
a continuous connection from the DCE (modem) input to the
DTE (computer) input. This connection is accomplished by
gold plated springs being in tensional contact with gold
plated contact pads on the printed circuit board.
Cross patching is achieved by the insertion of
patch cords into the front of the jack, in either the top
hole position (DTE/Computer) or middle hole position
(DCE/Modem), the normal-through connection is broken and the
circuit is connected through the patch cord instead. The
bottom patch hole in the jack is for monitoring only, and
does not break the normal-through connection.
A
non-normal-through patch jack is also available. For
this, the gold springs are not used and an insertion of a
patch cord into the DCE (modem) opening and into the DTE
(computer) opening, using the same jack or other non-normal
through jacks in the rack (s).
Several options are available, including basic
patching, electrical interface monitoring, audible and
visual alarming on circuit events. In addition to these
features, Dynetcom patching offers easy datascope access to
the electrical interface to allow interactive
circuit testing or passive circuit monitoring.
Some of these devices are known as
Hadax, Dynatech, Spectron, VIR, or Eastern Research Digital
Patch Panels. Or Digital Switch Patching Systems.
