Syuchronous -asynchronous adapter
This section discusses some of the synchronous -asynchronous adapters currently avail-
able. Connecting a single PC as in the figures below you can connect to a subscriber
much easier than by using a Dial -up Router.
These devices have been tested by FURUNO.
KlasHopper PCMCIA400 (Klas Ltd., lreland)
PC
KlasHopper
HSD
modem
FELCOM81
PPP supported
TA/Router
Terminal
[Landline]
• Drive software required to use the equipment.
• PPP (Point-to- Protocol) supported. Therefore, KlasHopper is not required at receiving
end. You can connect to an internet service provider with an ordinary modem or termi-
nal adapter.
• No limitations to software usage (Web Browser, E-mail, etc.)
RAMSAT RVH24(ODC-Caltronic A/S, Denmark)
PC
RAMSAT
HSD
modem
FELCOM

Serial port)
RAMSAT
Terminal
[Landline]
• No driver software required. However, modem data files are provided to permit the
RAMSAT to function as an external modem.
• RAMSAT required by both sender and receiver .
NOTE : RAMSAT may introduce a converter which supports PPP. Then, its
function may be similar to the KlasHopper.
• File transfer software which provides simultaneous transmission and reception of files
is optionally available. However this software has not been tested by FURUNO.
