Does anyone know what this is? I think it's made by TAB

It was cheap and I just got it for the chassis to build something with it but I'm wondering there's something in there to play with

I bought a bunch of Fernseh Danner cassettes from OD&D , single space units like the V72 ,
I think they were originally RF/TV/video modules of some sort . What you got doesnt look audio related

Ah ok, thanks

Yeah it arrived today so I've had a proper look and it just seems to be a load of relays

The metalwork is lovely though
 
The entire West German broadcast network shared the Danner cassette module for decades ,although different pin outs and a 'key' system ensured mishapps were minimised .
 
This appears to be some sort of operating status indicator. I believe BE means "Betriebseinheit" = operating unit and "Ltg." stands for "Leitung" = (signal) line.

Green light means "Bereit" = ready
Yellow light indicates "Störg." short version of "Störung" = malfunction.

This device informs the user about the status of downstream lines and units, probably signal transmission in broadcasting.
