-= Pete Replied to Stephen Lennie about: MODEM phone cord =-

G'day Stephen

 SL> NetComm SmartModems use a telephone cord with a piggy-back type
 SL> plug on the end which seems to perform exactly the same as a
 SL> standard (MODE 1) double adaptor except that it has, what
 SL> appears to be, a capacitor between pins 2 and 6.

 SL> Can anybody tell me what type of capacitor and what rating it
 SL> is?

 SL> Also, how does it function - is it designed to hold the line at
 SL> 50V or just smooth out occasional dips?

Now that's interesting, i'm currently using my series 3 E7 cable on my
M11F because it has the pass through plug on it, i'm using my M11F
lead on my USR because it was already there plugged in when i setup
the USR. Maybe i should go and plug the right leads into the right
modems.
