Introduction
MultiModemISI Hybrid Server Cards, ISIHP & ISIHI Series 7
Welcome to Multi-Techs MultiModemISI Hybrid Series of
ISDN BRI server cards. The series consists of eight models:
The 2S/2U and 4S/4U models are all multi ort hybrid ISDN cards that
can be lugged into a server ex ansion slot (PCI or ISA, as listed) for
a lications that involve ISDN or modem calls over ISDN BRI lines.
When the ISI card is used with Remote Access Servers (RAS), remote
users can call in using either modems or ISDN terminal ada ters
(TAs). For V.90 modem calls, a 56kb s download s eed can be
achieved without the ex ense of T1, E1, or ISDN PRI lines. S-models
use the ISDN S interface; U-models use the ISDN U interface.
This manual also describes the ISIHP-1S and the ISIHP-4SD cards.
The ISIHP-1S is a revised version of the ISIHP-2S card that has been
altered to acce t one ISDN Basic Rate Interface line rather than two.

Introduction
8 MultiModemISI Hybrid Server Cards, ISIHP & ISIHI Series
The ISIHP-4SD is a serial interface card equi ed with four terminal
ada ters only (no analog modems are resent). The ISIHP-4SD is
otherwise like the ISIHP-4S/4U models.
The ISIHP-2S/2U contains two terminal ada ters and four V.90/
K56flex modems. The ISIHP-2S/2U uses two ISDN BRI lines (each
offering two B-channels) to connect to the telco and these connect to
its two built-in terminal ada ters. In addition to handling ISDN calls,
each terminal ada ter can detect analog modem and fax calls. When
analog calls are detected, they are automatically connected to one of
the four V.90 modems on the ISIHP board. In this way, these hybrid
cards can handle either ISDN calls or analog modem calls. Although
the ISIHP-2S/2U contains four ISDN TA orts and four analog
modem orts, only four orts can be active at any one time (because
only four B-channels are resent). See Figure 1-1. The ISIHI-2S/2U
function like the ISIHP-2S/2U units but have an ISA-ty e bus which
requires manual setting of the I/O address and the interru t request
(IRQ).
The ISIHP-4S/4U works like the ISIHP-2S/2U but contains four
terminal ada ters and eight V.90/K56flex modems. The 4S and 4U
models each accommodate four ISDN BRI lines. The configuration of
modem and TA orts for the 4S and 4U models is shown in Figure 1-
2.

Introduction
MultiModemISI Hybrid Server Cards, ISIHP & ISIHI Series 9
The ISIHP-4SD contains four terminal ada ters only (the daughter
card containing the eight modems is absent). Since it accommodates
four ISDN BRI lines (each offering two B-channels), it su orts eight
inde endent digital data connections.
Each terminal ada ter a ears as two orts to the server PC using the
ISI card.
ISIHx cards also su ort dial-out a lications via their modems or
terminal ada ters.
MultiTechs ISI Management Software is designed to monitor data
traffic and control the modems/TAs of ISIHx server cards o erating
in the Windows 2000 Server and Advanced Server OSs. (See the ISI
Management Software User Guide, doc #88301450.)
The ISIHP-2S/2U and ISIHI-2S/2U cards each offers eight RAS orts
using two Basic Rate Interface (BRI) ISDN lines; the ISIHP-4S/4U
has 16 orts using four BRI ISDN lines. The eight orts of the 2S/2U
models allow a server to acce t any combination of analog modem
and digital ISDN calls, making a maximum of four simultaneous
inde endent data connections (sessions). For the ISIHP-4S/4U, its
sixteen orts allow a server to acce t any combination of analog
modem and digital ISDN calls, making a maximum of eight
simultaneous inde endent data connections. This arrangement gives
the user the flexibility to customize the settings of the terminal
ada ters and modems. The terminal ada ters on the ISIHP-4SD can
make eight simultaneous inde endent connections.

Introduction
10 MultiModemISI Hybrid Server Cards, ISIHP & ISIHI Series
From the ers ective of the server PC, the ISIHP-2S/2U (or ISIHI-2S/
2U) is an eight- ort serial card with eight devices ermanently
attached to the serial orts (Figure 1-1). The first four orts are the
two terminal ada ters, each of which a ear as two orts. The
remaining four orts are the four central site modems. The following
chart summarizes the correlation of orts and devices.
