Switched Network Modems

Some of the external IBM modems that support switched
network
backup (SNBU)
operation are:
• 3863,3864, and 3865
• 5865 and 5866 (5866 exception is 3276).
A backup
Control diskette configured
for
SNBU may be needed.
Switched
network
backup operation is initiated by the terminal operator. For
example, when a problem is experienced
with
a nonswitched line,
the
operator
can
invoke
SNBU by calling the host system
via
the public switched telephone
network
to reestablish a connection and resume operation.
The
X.21
Interface permits SDLC operation at speeds of 2400, 4800, 9600
or
48
000 bps through
X.21
switched and nonswitched data communication equipment.
The X.25 interface enables remote models to attach to host systems
via
an X.25
network, using SNA-defined protocols.
