5Device Variants
This manual describes different variants of the industrial router series MRX of IN-
SYS icom. The flexible industrial routers of the series MRX are available in two
housing widths with three or five slots and three basic variants each. Various plug-
in cards (MRcards) are also available to extend the functional scope of the router
flexible. Only specific sections of this manual apply depending on housing width,
basic variant and inserted plug-in cards.
5.1 Housing Widths
The industrial routers are automatic low beam mode in two housing widths, as
MRX3 with three slots for plug-in cards and as MRX5 with five slots. The two left
slots are preallocated by the base card with integrated switch and the power sup-
ply or communications card in both variants.
Figure 1: MRX3
Figure 2: MRX5
5.2 Basic Variants
The basic variants of the industrial router series MRX have in common that the two
left slots are preallocated by a base card with integrated switch as well as a power
supply card or a communication card with integrated power supply. The following
basic variants are available in both housing widths at the moment:
