Model 3920
Plus
Standalone Multiport Modem
The
Model 3920
Plus multiport is a standalone modem (Figure 1-1), with an integral time division
multiplexer (TDM) and a modem sharing device (MSD) as standard equipment. The TDM
provides time division multiplexing of up to four independent ports over point-to-point lines using
the V
.34 family or V.32 family modulation. The MSD allows multiple physical ports on a tributary
modem to share a single communication channel using the V
.34 family
, V
.32 family, or TMp
modulation. The TDM/MSD multiplexer (commonly referred to as “mux” can be enabled or
disabled to allow a greater degree of application flexibility.
The 3920Plus multiport modem also operates over a 4-wire/2-wire leased or dial network and is
controlled using the same DCP employed on the Model 3920
Plus
singleport standalone modem.
