== Description ==

The DHT32 is an 8-line asynchronous multiplexer for the [[MicroVAX 2000]], application compatible with the [[DHQ11]].
It provides data-only transmission at speeds up to 38.4 Kb/s, and allows eight additional terminals or peripheral devices to connect to the MicroVAX 2000 system.
With the three non-modem lines and one modem line available on the MicroVAX 2000, a total of 12 asynchronous lines can be connected to the MicroVAX 2000 system.
A network solution, including a [[DECserver 200]] via [[Ethernet]], is appropriate if more asynchronous lines are required.

The DHT32 supports the [[EIA-423-A]] standard.
Terminals requiring [[EIA-232]] connections can use an adapter.
Cables that connect directly to terminals or printers are not provided as part of this option.

The option comprises one 54-17129 controller module, one driver/receiver module, internal cabling, and a connector in opening "C" on the rear of the BA40A expansion adapter.
Connection of one external cable and one H3104 cable concentrator on the MicroVAX 2000, as shown below, enables the connection of additional terminals or other peripheral devices such as printers.

After installation of the cable concentrator, your MicroVAX 2000 can accomodate up to twelve terminals.
Four of the terminals connect to the rear of the system unit, as explained in the MicroVAX 2000 Hardware Installation Guide (EK-MVXAA-IG).
The remaining eight connect to the cable concentrator.

Note:

The DHT32 and the [[DST32 Synchronous Serial Line Option]] are mutually exclusive, and only one can be installed in a system.
If synchronous lines as well as more than four asynchronous lines are required, customers can add terminals using Digital terminal servers.

== Components ==

The DHT32 8-line asynchronous controller includes:
* 54-17129 serial line logic module
* 54-????? serial line driver/receiver module
* 17-00867-03 34-way internal ribbon cable
* BC16D-25 external 7.5-m (25-ft) data cable
* H3104 8-line data cable concentrator

== Features ==

* 8-line, asynchronous, terminal-expansion option gives MicroVAX 2000 a total capacity of 12 asynchronous lines.
* Performance approximates the MicroVAX II systems with DHQ11 asynchronous controller.
* Software Support: [[VMS]] and [[ULTRIX]] operating systems.

== Specifications ==

* Mounting Space: Daughter-boarded to the [[KA410 MicroVAX 2000/VAXstation 2000 System Module]]; driver/receiver board located in the [[BA40A Expansion Adapter]]
* Power Requirements:
** dc amps drawn at 5 Vdc: 1.5 A
** dc amps drawn at 12 Vdc: 0.70 A
** dc amps drawn at -12 Vdc: 0.12 A
* Bus Loads: Private bus architecture (one F-type logic board)
* I/O Connection Panel Inserts: Located in opening C in the expansion adapter
* Environmental Class: B with modified relative humidity (operating) of 10 to 90% (no diskette system), and 20 to 80% (diskette in use)
