Abstract :
A high speed network communications station has been developed to serve to interconnect a variety of computers in a multiplexed star network. Each station consists of one control module and two memory modules embodied as CAMAC modules. Transmission is over coaxial lines with typical distances between stations of from 1 to 2 miles. The transmission rate is 4MHz.
