CHAPTER 2: Introduction
2. Introduction
Switching between data lines manually can often damage the connected
equipment, because this relatively slow and imprecise action can cause data-line
surges and spikes large enough to damage today’s sensitive circuitry. With the
Local/Remote Electronic Switches, you can eliminate this potential hazard. Their
electronic switching action provides surgeless, spikeless changeovers—something
a mechanical switch just can’t do.

In addition, these switches can be controlled remotely, from a convenient
out-of-sight location.
