MT128ISA/PCI

Product Overview

Introduction

Welcome to the world of ISDN communications. You have acquired one of the finest ISDN
terminal adapters (TAs) available today, the MultiModemISDN from Multi-Tech Systems.

The proliferation of PCs and LANs with bandwidth-intensive applications has generated a
powerful demand for high-speed connections.  The worldwide standardization of ISDN,
combined in many countries with its growing availability and falling cost, make it a natural
choice for enhancing data throughput. Terminal adapters provide high-performance solutions
for Internet access, file transfer, remote access service (RAS), and running existing modem
applications through the ISDN network.

Product Description

The MT128ISA and MT128PCI are internal PC cards for IBM personal computers; and fit into
a full-or half-sized expansion slot.  There are two ISDN interface options, ST and U.  If you
purchased the ST interface adapter (MT128PCI-SD/SV), you need an ISDN NT1device
connection to the ISDN switch.  If you purchased the U interface adapter (MT128ISA-UV), it
can directly connect to the ISDN switch (figure 1-1).

          Figure 1-1. ”ST” and “U” Interface Options

Your internal ISDN PC card is compatible with prevalent ISDN switch protocols. It
communicates using ISDN BRI (2B+D) service, which provides up to 128K bps data
communications.

This manual documents the following models:

• MT128PCI-SD for ST interface no POTS port
• MT128PCI-SV for ST interface with one POTS port
• MT128ISA-UV for U interface with one POTS port

All of the current analog devices, including telephone set, G3 fax, answering machine,
modem, and PBX trunk line, can be connected to the POTS port via an RJ-11 jack in “V”
models.

This User Guide will help you install, configure, and operate your terminal adapter.
