Please confirm the Part number and the description of the 3COM01 terminal adapter. Also, what's the model number of the adapter. A2. The part number previously provided for the 3COM01 adapter was an internal part number provided by one vendor and is not a generic part number. -- No specific adapter (Make or Model) is required, it must be an adapter for Analog devices, such as STU-III and faxes. 3. A contractor would like to supply an interface for the M4 terminal that will support both Stu-III and KIV-7 communications through a box that is approximately the size of a deck of cards. This solution would combine the functions of the 3 Com TA and the Adtran 2X64 in a single box. This solution weighs 1/10 of and is approx 1/8 the size of the ADTRAN and 3 com devices and runs on DC power. However, the Adtran 2X64 supports both DTR dialing and Keypad dialing for the KIV-7 while the solution AOS proposes only supports DTR dialing only for KIV-7. Is DTR dialing for KIV-7 calls an acceptable solution for this bid. A3. Acceptable solution. ***** Posted 07/05/00 (W-SN471631). (0187)
