East Coast Datacom (ECD), Inc., a Florida-based data communications accessory specialist, announces three new products for first quarter 1998 production. Plus, new higher data rates and ESD protection for our RS-232 modem sharing devices.

The four new products are as follows:

1) Model: V35-V36, The V35-V36 is an interface converter and is designed to convert any V.35 modem (or DCE interface) to a V.36 terminal (or any DTE interface). The specification for V.36 covers RS-422, RS-449 interfaces and typically utilizes a DB-37 connector. An optional adapter cable allows the V35-V36 to convert from V.35 to RS-530. Production units are available for immediate delivery.

2) Model: V35/X21 BBOX, This product is a combination V.35 or X.21 breakout box. When using a breakout box, the interpretation of the LED's can at times be misleading. The V35/X21 BBOX contains circuitry to help alleviate this problem. A pulse streaching technique is used to keep the LED illuminated long enough to be interpreted. The V35/X21 BBOX is 115/230VAC selectable. Production units will be available in January 1999.

3) Model: ALD-19.2, This product is a low cost 4-wire asynchronous line driver for 9.6k, 19.2k and optional 38.4Kbps point to point operation. Control signals for RTS and DSR are passed as in-band flow control. This flow control is full duplex and control signals are transferred simultaneously in both directions. Targeted for the retail industry with remote serial printing needs, the ADL-19.2 is also an excellent choice for remote async terminals connected to a statistical multiplexer. Production units will be available in January 1999.

4) ESD protection and higher speed. Our industry standard RS-232 modem sharing devices (MSD-4 and MSD-8) now have +/- 15kV ESD protection to handle harsh operating environments. Each transmitter and receiver on the MSD is protected against +/- 15kV ESD discharge shocks. Additionally, data rates of up to 128kbps sync or async are now possible.
