CB26 Small Frame Motherboard with
CB26A through CB26L Plugboards

Frame below provides a general description while
the frames that follow describe each plugboard.

CB26 provides the support frame part of our two-board system of mounting connectors available only in right angle format. This board provides two 68-pin 2 mm headers designed to mate with either the CB26A through CB26L plugboards (sold separately). Up to two plugboards may be attached simultaneously and are held in place with right-angle brackets. Each plugboard supports right angle connectors that cannot be obtained in vertical-mount format. Set of two boards. Expander cable included with CB26B

CB26A ­ Smart Serial Connectors

CB26A offers two Cisco-style 26-pin Smart Serial connectors. The connectors may be used independently or together for a two-ended cable. An aluminum hold-down bracket clamps the small, fragile Smart Serial connector to the board for extra support when testing long or stiff cables. Requires the CB26 Small Frame Motherboard (Item 756) for operation. Set of two boards.
