Abstract
Base connection modules are used to house slide-in cards which form a Network Support Processor which executes data transfer operations for up to four main host computers. One Network Support Processor can control up to four Line Support Processors, each one of which manages up to 16 Line Adapters connected, via data communication lines, to remote terminals. The line Support Processor, via its Line Adapters, handles a wide variety of communication line disciplines but provides a common discipline to its Network Support Processor and the host computer.
