Introduction The EiconCard S90 is a PCI Plug-and-Play (PnP) card that offers X.25 connectivity through a high-speed port (supporting V.24, V.35, EIA-530, V.36/RS-449, or X.21 interfaces) at speeds of up to 2 Mbps. Note The EiconCard S90 also supports protocols such as SDLC, PPP, and Frame Relay. Hardware Features The EiconCard S90 features a 25 MHz Motorola 68302 microprocessor with 1 MB of RAM and 1 MB of FLASH memory.
Installing the EiconCard S90 The steps below describe how to install the EiconCard S90. If you want the EiconCard S90 to be available to multiple users on a LAN, install it in the PC that will function as a gateway for the LAN. 1 Prepare the PC Turn off the PC and disconnect its power cable. Remove the cover of the PC according to the instructions that came with it. 2 Install the EiconCard S90 Insert the EiconCard S90 into any available PCI port.
Selecting an Interface The EiconCard S90 can connect as a DTE to devices such as Data Service Units (DSUs) which support one of the following interfaces: V.24, V.35, EIA-530, V.36/RS-449, or X.21. It can also connect directly to a host computer, or back-to-back to another EiconCard. Table 1 lists the most common connections supported by the VHSI port, and specifies the part number of the required Eicon Technology cable. For information on making your own cables, see “Interface Specifications” on page 8.
Interface Specifications The standards compliant with each interface supported on the VHSI port are listed in Table 2. The rest of this section describes the allocation of pins used to implement the electrical and signaling requirements of each interface. A wiring diagram is also provided, to show the correspondence of the interface pinout to the VHSI port. Interface Standard Compatibility V.24 CCITT V.24 Signaling CCITT V.28 Electrical CCITT X.
Cable Construction Information If you plan to construct your own VHSI cables, be sure to observe the guidelines given below. Wire Gauge, Grounding, and Pairing • Use 28 AWG 7-strand wire with 0.020–0.028" insulation. • The chassis must be grounded both by a drain wire and by the braid; both must be connected to the connector case and shell at each end of the cable. The braid must be connected through its full circumference. • Wires identified under the heading “Twisted Pairs” must be paired.

Table 9. Creepage Distances The creepage distances apply when installed in a normal office environment. The creepage distances shown in parentheses apply where the local environment within the PC is subject to conductive pollution or dry non-conductive pollution which could become conductive due to condensation. These distances can be checked by measuring between the adjacent parts as shown below. X shows the clearance distance which is the shortest distance in air between two points.
