• Uses Motorola MC68705P3S microprocessor
• Full crosspoint switching of 16 Receive Data lines to 16 Transmit Data lines and local emulated UART
• Most often used to arbitrate a "public" bus line, where one port can "talk" to all the others
• Capable of receiving and responding to network traffic, including configuration request/replies
• Because it is a crosspoint switch, individual "private" connections between 2 or more ports can be established
• Because it is a switch, and not a network node, data speeds of private connections are unlimited
• Includes timeout logic for talkers on the public bus to prevent hanging
• Private mode to eliminate all but private traffic
• Prioritized camp-on-busy logic for private connection requests

• The Video signal paths
• The Audio signal paths
• The Control signal paths
