FALLBACK

The FALLBACK asynchronous rate adaption protocol provides the capability
to automatically establish calls with other ISDN terminal adapters, Switched
56 DSUs, V.34 modems (optional), as well as other ISUs using a single config-
uration. To communicate with analog modems, the ISU 128 with V.34 modem
option (part numbers 1202029L3) must be used.

The ISU 128 must be optioned as follows for FALLBACK operation:

Any asynchronous bit rate up to 115.2 kbps which is supported by the
DTE.

Flow control must be enabled and supported by the DTE.

FALLBACK

supports the following protocols based on the call type: BOND-

ING Mode 1, V.120, T-Link, and V.34.

When answering calls, the ISU 128 uses the incoming call type to determine
which rate adaption protocols to support. See Table 7-A for the call type and
the supported rate adaption protocols.
