The Model 1018 async short range modem is able to pass two discrete sets of handshaking signals: DTR & DCD are used to control the point-to-point session, while RTS & CTS are used for flow control. This capability-combined with the Model 1018's ability to support RS-232 data rates up to 57.6 kbps over two twisted pair-makes the Model 1018 perfect for inexpensive campus Internet links. Just use a plug-in Model 1018 at each remote computer, a rack of Model 1018RC cards at the central site, and connect them with 2-pair copper wire at up to 2.4 miles (3.9km)!
