The Model 1080A-64 AC Powered, Universal Short Range Modem is the mainstay of our RS-232 short huoul line, and it is now better than ever! Recentimprovements in the Model 1080A include increased distances (up to 26,6 km on one or two twisted pair), support for higher data rates (up to 64 kbps), and the addition of a built-in V.52 BER test pattern generator.

    The modems of the given series support all opportunities of the early predecessors: synchronous and asynchronous mode of operations RS-232, half-duplex (on 2-wires) or full duplex communication (on 4-wires), modes "point-to-point" and multidot. They completely compatible with V.54 by modes of testing (local analog loop and lingering digital).
   The modems Patton 1080A give also opportunity of connection to the Internet, and the given function has the advantages.

   New automated features include equalization, gain control and noise filtering (a separate filter for each data rate is built into a custom VLSI chip). To combat the many nemeses of clear data transmission, the Model 1080A includes surge protection (guards against transients), transformer solation (eliminates ground looping) and a new anti-streaming timer (stops data streaming).
