Backbone Connections
The network system of the DriveRack™ has been configured to allow the units within a multi-
ple unit network configuration communicate through a Back bone type connection. This allows
the units to transmit and receive information immediately through the line instead of the con-
ventional daisy chain system. The illustration below shows an example of the Back Bone net-
work system.
