RBP - Communications Repeater Backplane
Electronic Technician Assistant (ETA)

The RBP - Communications Repeater Backplane fits into the TRK18 snap track and provides power, communications and convenient mounting for the FOX and RPTR modules.
Connectors on the face of the RBP plug into mating connectors on the RPTR and FOX. The FOX and RPTR modules share data across the RBP backplane which provides transient protection for the communications network. Several RBP backplanes can be plugged together to share data through the backplane end connectors, allowing all the RPTR and FOX modules to form a large communications hub.
The RBP backplane receives 12 VDC power from a 3312VC voltage converter.

3312VC - Voltage Converter
The RS-485 Communications Repeater (RPTR) and the Fiber Optic Transceiver (FOX) require 12VDC power. The 3312VC converts the 33 VDC from the Power Supply Fuse Block (PS17) into the 12 VDC required by the RPTR and FOX.

TRK18 - Snaptrack
All good projects need a proper foundation and the ETA modules are no exception. The TRK18 - Snaptrack provides a sturdy, secure and easy mounting method for the ETA line.
