Controlling your Platinum VX via a Hardware Control Panel
You can control your Platinum VX frame via a hardware panel such as a Magellan™ Router Control Panel
(RCP). You can also use certain Imagine Communications legacy control panels to control your Platinum
VX.
If you would like to use a legacy control panel, you need to set it up such that there is an Edge in
between your control panel and your Platinum VX. The EDGE is a 1 RU router protocol translator (from
Imagine Communications) that acts as a gateway in between.
