A.2.1 Nomenclature
Historically, the ports of the Smart Antenna product lines which
include Acutis, Acutime and Palisade products, have been described
using letters "A" and "B". The board-level products, such as Lassen,
Ace and Core Module 3, have historically used port numbers "1" and
"2" to label the ports on the starter kit.
The Acutime 2000 ports are referenced by letters "A" and "B",
conformant to standards established by the Palisade product line.
The Ace UTC ports are referenced by numbers, conformant with the
conventions of previous board-level products.
This manual reconciles the naming schemes of both receiver lines,
and generally refers to the ports using the Ace UTC convention of
using "1" and "2". Exclusively, where designations apply only to
Acutime 2000, the ports will be referenced as letters "A" or "B".
The following tables can be used to cross reference the port
identifiers:
A.2.2 Protocol Capabilities
