- Our scsiTerminal Server has properly implemented bi-directional hardware
- flow control for this exact reason, and is what I've been using to run a
- few different V.32bis modems for quite some time now. Rather than post
- data sheets-n-stuff here, why don't you send me email if you want details
- on our products. They are local ports to the sun (NOT ptty's), and support
- baud rates up to 57.6K.
-
- Also, anyone else seeing this posting is also welcome to email, call, or
- FAX inquiries in. We also have a VAR program, an educational discount, and
- quantity discounts.
