22.2.16 Galvanic X.21 line data communication (X.21-LDCM)
GUID-75B89AAC-1A2D-4774-B357-88F7AB7F392A v1
22.2.16.1 Introduction
GUID-D02150FC-54F5-4CE4-8D3D-9F8796B6A527 v3
The galvanic X.21 line data communication module is used for connection to telecommunication
equipment, for example leased telephone lines. The module supports 64 kbit/s data
communication between IEDs.
Examples of applications:
• Line differential protection
• Binary signal transfer
22.2.16.2 Design
GUID-0570749A-516C-47D6-A818-83416759BA90 v5
The galvanic X.21 line data communication module uses a ABB specific PC*MIP Type II format.
