Modem Signal Behavior

The RJ-11 IP Gateway is not a modem (DCE), but is a terminal (DTE) device. It is designed to be connected to another DTE device via RJ-11 cable.The RI (Ring Indicator) signal does not have a corresponding outgoing signal so it is not supported.

Specifically, the DTR, DSR and DCD signals should be crossed with the device as follows:

To emulate a modem properly, the Host RJ-11 IP Gateway does the following:

lost

 

 

 

 

 

 

The device server monitors its DCD signal in order to detect changes in the device's DTR signal. The following behaviors occur on loss of DCD only.

Phone Numbers

The “phone number” used in an outgoing connection for an “ATD” command may be a real phone number that is translated to an IP/port pair (see Phone Number Translation) or it consists of an IP address and optional port number. All leading non-numeric characters (such as the T or P dial mod- ifiers) are ignored. A number of formats are accepted for the “IP” phone number.
