Applications
Multipoint
Multipoint
is available in all 392x
Plus modems. It utilizes leased-line circuits for time sharing the
same front-end processor (FEP) port with multiple remote locations. The FEP (via the control
modem) regulates traffic on the line by continuously polling the tributary DTE(s) in a predefined
sequence. Only one tributary can communicate with the control modem at a given time. Modems
configured for Trellis Multipoint (TMp) cannot be used in a point-to-point, constant carrier
application. (Refer to the Multiport Mode —
Leased Line
or the
Singleport Mode —
Leased Line
section in Chapter 4 for configuration options.)
