Aus einem Patent zu Anrufvermittlungsstrukturen:

"The ATM cell switch has plural ingress ports and plural egress ports, with at least some of such ports having a *device board* attached thereto."

"Each *device board* at the ATM node can have one or more different functions performed thereby or one or more different devices mounted thereon. For example, one of the *device boards* attached to a port of the ATM cell switch can, in one embodiment, have the main processor mounted thereon. Other *device boards* may have other processors, known as board processors. Some *device boards* serve as extension terminals (ETs) which may be used to connect the ATM node to other nodes."

Worum handelt es sich wohl bei diesem "board", einer Platine, Steckkarte, Platte? Und nein, ich möchte das ungern als "Device Board" stehen lassen.

Vielen Dank im Voraus
