The need for intercomputer communications is expanding, particularly in the area of the experimental laboratory. Satellite computers used for data preprocessing or plant control must be capable of communications with a host computer. One solution to provide the linkage between a single host computer and a multitude of satellite computers is described. The use of fiber optics and modem linkages is covered, and the advantages of fiber optics in a high-EMI environment are demonstrated.
