The TRANSITION Networks rack-mountable PowerStar

V, PSV-2/14-45,

converts a twinax daisy-chain topology to an unshielded twisted-pair star
topology in AS/400™, Sys36, or 5x94 remote controller host
environments. The PowerStar

V supports all 5250 compliant devices

operating at speeds of either 1 Mb/s OR 2 Mb/s (IBM

®

5250 Express*). 

PSV-2/14-45

The PowerStar™ V distributes one or two host input signals from the
AS/400, Sys36, or 5x94 remote controller, received over twinax, fiber, or
twisted-pair media, to up to seven (7) terminal devices for each host input
signal (up to fourteen (14) terminal devices for two host input signals). 

All signals from the PowerStar™ V to terminal devices are over twisted-
pair using RJ-45 port connectors.

PowerStar

V; when installed, provides two (2) twinax link connections for

host input signal(s).
