Splitter architecture for a telecommunication system

摘要

An interface card adapted to be mounted at the back plane of a splitter chassis. The interface card includes card edge connectors for providing connections with a splitter card. The interface card also includes cable connectors for inputting mixed voice and data, and for outputting data and voice signals. Tracings are provided on the interface card for interconnecting the cable connectors and the card edge connectors. The tracings are configured such that first tracings carrying data signals from the splitter card to the cable connectors do not cross second tracings carrying voice signals from the splitter card to the cable connectors.
