First, there is no such thing as a bisynchronous modem. We think you're
probably thinking of a synchronous modem in this case.
- MacMainFrame DX allows the option of remote connectivity over asynchronous
modems and is a possible solution.
- A second solution is to run IBM 3278 emulation using MacTerminal on the
Macintosh and dial into DCA IrmaLine (AppleLine) through a pair of
Hayes-compatible, asynchronous modems. The IrmaLine is, in turn, connected to
a cluster controller via coax. The cluster controller connects to the
Front-End Processor (FEP) using synchronous modems.
- A third solution is SimWare's Mac3270, which supports remote mainframe access
via asynchronous modems. Sim3278 software has to be installed on the host.
