Phantom Specter: Advanced CAT5 Distributed Technology
The Specter is based on Minicom's cutting-edge CAT5 technology and unique distributed switching architecture. Distributed architecture separates the switch into remote and manager units and brings the remote unit, the Specter, to the computer. This eliminates cumbersome cable clutter and harnessing while saving enormous amounts of space, energy, time and money.
