GE DS3800NSCD1B1C
Product Name: Mark VIe Dual-Channel Serial Communication Termination Board (Ruggedized)
Product Introduction: This is a ruggedized, dual-channel serial communication termination board designed for harsh industrial environments. The “1B” revision upgrades surge suppression to 1.5kW TVS diodes, while the “1C” revision adds reinforced through-hole terminal anchoring and a high-Tg PCB for extended temperature operation.
