A testing device for multiple line cables that makes a connection to each line to see if a signal is present.
A test device that can be attached to a cable, making it easy to connect a wire to any conductor. Some breakout boxes also feature LEDs to monitor signals on each line.
a device that lets you view the logic state of many, or all, of the signal leads, as well as providing some ability to interrupt some (or all) of the signal leads
a piece of test equipment used for diagnosing problems in computer communications, typically over a serial port
a separate unit that uses a cable to
a useful tool for debugging cabling problems
A traditional breakout box is a device that can be placed in a circuit and uses LED's to show when a line in the circuit is active. Serialtest contains a software breakout box that shows a graphical display of the control signal changes in real time. Serialtest also retains a history of those changes that can be reviewed in the Signal Display Window.
A test device utilised for monitoring and inserting signals in the RS-2332 interface. Bridge equipment techniques used to connect circuits and equipment to each other ensuring minimum transmission impairment. Bridging is normally required on multipoint data channels where the drop for the local loop is separated from the circuit that continues on to the next drop.
A device used to troubleshoot or test communications signals between two devices.
A breakout box (BoB) is usually a box, in which a compound electrical connector is separated or "broken out" into its component connectors. Compound connectors (which are often proprietary) are used where sufficient space for (or access to) connections is unavailable, such as on personal computer sound cards. If there are only a few connections, then a breakout cable may be used, as is common on smaller notebook computers.
