I have a general area question about all this 56k stuff. I retired from 
the telco in 1984, so know about T carrier systems etc. But from what I 
read about these 56k modems, it sounds like they haul the 4 wire end of 
a T channel out to the ISP?
Splitting a T system was unheard of in my days. (I retired in 1984.) I 
know we do it now, as many business buy enough channels to warrant the 
cost of the T span. I further understand that these systems use other 
terminal devices than those made by WECO.
I see no way of preventing the A/D conversion on the ISP/User direction 
if they don't have access to the 4w side of the channel? Fill me in 
please. :)
If that is the case, that ISP modem unit must be one complex beast. :)
 
... Which of my enemies told you I'm paranoid?
