Leased Phone Line
A leased phone line is a private, dedicated phone line. Leased phone lines provide a
phone link between modems that is available for communication at all times.
Typically, leased phone lines are used when you have a high or constant transfer of
communication between the module and external devices.
Radio Link
A radio link provides a communication link when phone lines are inaccessible or
expensive to use. A radio link provides a communications link between radio
modems.
Dial-Up Modem
Dial-up or phone modems are modems capable of communicating across standard
phone lines. One dial-up modem initiates the communication, while another
modem receives the communication.
