Introduction

Welcome to Multi-Tech’snew MultiModemISI Hybrid Series, model ISIHP-2S/2U, a multiport hybrid ISDN card that can be

plugged into any PCI slot for Remote Access Server (RAS) applications. Included on the ISIHP-2S/2U are four V.90/K56flex central site modems for incoming analog modem and fax calls, as well as two terminal adapters. Each terminal adapter appears as two ports to the server PC using the ISIHP-2S/2U. The terminal adapters identify incoming analog calls and route them to the central site modems. The ISIHP-2S/2U also supports dial-out applications via the modems or terminal adapters.

The card features eight RAS ports using two Basic Rate Interface (BRI) ISDN lines. The eight ports allow a server to accept any combination of analog modem and digital ISDN calls, giving the user the flexibility to customize the settings of the terminal adapters and modems. Since the two BRI lines constitute only four Bearer channels, only four of the eight ports can be active at any one time. The two terminal adapters handle the four B-channels as four independent data connections (see diagram below).
