System architecture

ETL600 may be tailored to the specific needs of the application thanks
to its modular architecture. The modules are housed in one, two or
three standard 19" subracks, mounted on top of each other as shown
in Fig. 3-9. For the terminals to be operational, a minimal set of
modules is needed shown with solid lines in the block diagrams of Fig.
3-10 to Fig. 3-12. This set is referred to as 'basic equipment'.
Depending on the services needed by the application, additional
modules may be inserted into the subrack in slots not occupied by
modules of the basic equipment. DPLC operation and AF data
channels may be activated with an appropriate license key. A large
variety of possible equipment configurations results depending on
license key and number and type of optional modules.
All possible configurations for the equipment ETL640 and ETL680 are
shown in Fig. 3-9 (front- and side-views) and Fig. 3-10 to Fig. 3-12
(block diagrams). Optional parts are drawn in dashed lines. Refer to
section 3.3.11 regarding the differences between ETL640 operation
with Rx-filter (Fig. 3-10) and without Rx-filter (Fig. 3-11).
