T
he Async/Sync Short-Haul
Modem works at distances up to 11.4 miles (18.3 km) on one or two unconditioned 24 AWG twisted pair. It supports data rates of up to 57.6 kbps and has a built­in V.52 BER test pattern generator.
The modem operates in asynchronous or synchronous RS-232 mode, for half-/full duplex 4-wire or half-duplex 2-wire com­munication over four wires. It

Key Features
ASYNC/SYNC SHORT-HAUL MODEM
supports point-to-point or multi­point applications and fully com­pliant V.54 test modes (local analog loop and remote digital loop).
Automatic features include equalization, gain control, and noise filtering (a separate filter for each data rate is built into a custom VLSI chip).
To combat the many nemeses of clear data transmission, the
modem includes surge protection that guards against transients. Transformer isolation eliminates ground looping, and a new anti­streaming timer stops data streaming.
Front-panel LEDs give a clear picture of link status, V.54 tests can be activated remotely or via the front panel, and the unit can be externally configured so there
s no need to open the case.

Recognize any of these situations?
• You wait more than 30 minutes to get through to a vendor’s tech support.
• The so-called “tech” can’t help you or gives you the wrong answer.
• You don’t have a purchase order number and the tech refuses to help you.
• It’s 9 p. m. and you need help, but your vendor’s tech support line is closed.
According to a survey by Data Communications magazine, 90% of network managers surveyed say that getting the technical support they need is extremely important when choosing a
vendor. But even though network managers pay anywhere from 10 to 20% of their overall purchase price for a basic service and support contract, the technical support and service they receive falls far short of their expectations—and certainly isn’t worth what they paid.
At Black Box, we guarantee the best value and the best support. You can even consult our Technical Support Experts before you buy if you need help selecting just the right component for your application.
Don’t waste time and money—call Black Box today.
