SIMULTANEOUS VOICE AND DATA
This section describes typical hardware configurations for a MERLIN II system with accessories and auxiliary equipment Connectivity diagrams with descriptions are provided for the following:
●Simultaneous voice and data (analog station) using the analog station module (408) to gain access to a remote host computer.
●Simultaneous voice and data (digital station) and local host computer access using the digital station module (008D).
●Modem pool using the digital station module (008D) and the basic telephone module (012).
●Modem pool using the digital station module (008D) and the analog station module (408).
●Modem pool on dedocated outside lines for data-
●Background music provided for callers through
●External loudspeaker paging.
Simultaneous voice and data at an analog station allows the user to connect to the system an analog voice terminal and a data terminal or PC with data rates set by the modem. This feature requires both an odd and even jack to be connected to the voice terminal. Refer to the connectivity diagram in Figure
Simultaneous voice and data at a digital station allows the user to have a digital voice terminal and a data terminal or PC with data rates up to 19,200 bps between digital endpoints. Note that between the Modular Trunk Data Module (MTDM) and the modem there can be a maximum of 17 feet. Refer to the connectivity diagram, especially Note 2, in Figure
