Notes on
Telephone Lines

To ensure that the modem works properly, note that:

❑ Your modem cannot be used on “party lines”, nor can it be used on toll or coin-operated lines.

Contact your local telephone company for help if you are not sure about the suitability of your
telephone line.

❑ This modem is intended for use on an analog telephone line, also called a POTS (Plain Old

Telephone Service) line. This modem cannot be connected directly to a digital telephone line,
such as those commonly found in businesses. Either obtain an analog line or an analog
converter compatible with the telephone line you are using.
