DOVE - Data Over Voice Encoder
The Data Over Voice
Encoder (DOVE)/MDL500 incorporates special filters which permit
the transmission of data over operating facility PBX telephone
lines simultaneously– with normal voice communications
and no interference. The DOVE/MDL500 provides optimal data communications
throughout a facility by superimposing the data on in-place
wiring–thereby eliminating the need for costly data cable
installation.
The DOVE/MDL500 can also be used to transmit digital data over
in-service current loop instrumentation lines. This is the preferred
method of adding data communication capability using existing
wires without disturbing the wires’ initial function.
Superior Performance
Dove allows full duplex data transmission up to 9600 baud for
distances up to four miles on the 22 AWG PBX wiring and supports
and switches with its Data Terminal Ready and Request-to-Sent
controls signals. LED indicators monitor AC Power On, Transmit
and Receive Data and Carrier Detect.
Many Applications
DOVE can be used to send any data in RS-232, 422 or 485 format-
such as industrial process control and monitoring as well as
word processing, graphics or accounting tasks. Use it as a full
mid-sized local area network, or as a node on a larger T-1 or
Ethernet LAN.
Completely Transparent
DOVE is absolutely transparent to all telephone operations.
It does not interfere with telephone usage in any way, nor does
telephone activity affect DOVE data transmissions. Telephone
communications are unaffected even if power is lost.
Noise Immunity & Polling
DOVE has exceptional immunity to electromagnetic interference.
Transformer isolation of the data line eliminates ground plane
problems. Multi-stage receiver filters insure high data integrity.
For multi-drop monitoring and process control applications install
DOVE Master unit at the host computer to communicate with as
many as 30 DOVE remote devices.
