IG500 202T Modem

The Data Connect IG500, Industrial Grade Transportation Industry Bell 202T modem, directly connects to traffic controllers or variable message signs over point-to-point & multi-point private wire and leased 3002 Telco lines.  The internal power supply with fuse eliminates the external power supply.  In addition the Key-On-Data, KOD, polling signals of data are received from the host to generate an RTS handshake.  KOD is vitally important for interfacing with a communications device that demands constant RTS/CTS handshaking.
