MOST - optical/electrical
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 7 other vehicles, including the 2005 Porsche 911, 2004 Porsche 911, 2003 Porsche 911, 2002 Porsche 911, and 2001 Porsche 911. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
MOST signals are transferred electrically within the PCM2 and optically outside of the PCM2. Internally, the PCM2 consists of at least 2 nodes (GW and MMI), which are installed in the device and can also be expanded to four nodes by adding the navigation and VOCS nodes (optional).
The data is transferred outside of the PCM2 via the optical waveguide, which creates a connection to the nodes in the external MOST control modules such as external amplifiers, CD changers, and/or telephone/telematics (optional, depending on the equipment). The gateway node represents the connection to CAN comfort.
