Eliminate the Expense of Dedicated
Phone Lines!
The PDF-2 PathFinder allows any
business, large or small, to enjoy the
convenience of automated data
transmission without the perpetual monthly
expense of a dedicated phone line.
The PathFinder automatically answers each call, then routes the call to the appropriate
telephone, fax, modem, point of sale terminal or other device.
All connected devices share the same line but operate independently, giving small
offices or residences big business features and convenience.
Offices with multi-line phone systems can use the last line of their system as their
fax/modem line, maximizing their line utilization.
