Pooled Modem (TN758)
The Pooled Modem Circuit Pack supports 0-300 and 1200 bits per second (bps) data speeds
and provides the following:
Circuitry to provide a signal compatible with the modulation formats of the 212-
series modems
Modem emulation (see below)

Modem control functions corresponding to 212A-series modem operations.
A maximum of two Pooled Modem CPs are allowed in a single cabinet (six in a 3-cabinet
system).
The Pooled Modem CP (Figure 3-21) consists of common circuitry and two conversion
resources. The conversion resource (port) allows communications between two dissimilar
endpoints. For example, the Pooled Modem CP enables a digital data endpoint linked to an
ADU connected to a port on the Data Line CP (TN726) to communicate with either a local
analog data endpoint, such as a personal computer with a modem, or a remote host via a CO
trunk connection.
Each port has two connections to the TDM bus: one to the digital data
endpoint via an ADU data module, and the other to an analog endpoint.
