The ACP 2.0 is a stateofthe art “Out of Band” Network Switch, Telephony Firewall, and
telephone line sharing device….three solutions in one for remote network support.
Protecting access to information systems is becoming more critical in commercial and industrial
applications, as are reliable, secure, and redundant communication paths. The ACP 2.0 provides
these capabilities, while providing cost savings through phone line consolidation (line‐sharing).
Incoming calls are answered, screened, and automatically routed to phones, a fax machine, remote
service ports, or remote information systems. Inbound and outbound calls are transparent.
Why is this solution important?
• Eliminates costly dedicated phone lines resulting in reduced telecom costs!
• Provides a low cost, SECURE “out of band” “back up” communications path for remote servicing of
equipment and for credit/debit card transactions.
• Controls and Secures remote service ports with a 7 digit security access code (telephony firewall).
• Maximizes the use of a fax line or any other existing premise analog or DSL line.
• Overcomes customer objections to phone line installations for service equipment.
Selling Overview
Targeting the right prospect:
Anyone (organizations) who wants to reduce their telephone line costs.

Operation
The New ACP Series 2.0 devices install on a standard analog or DSL phone line. Inbound calls are
answered and immediately screened for fax tone and/or DTMF Security Access Codes. (Each port has a
unique programmable code). During this brief processing period, a bell spec “ring back” is issued out to
the calling party. Once the Security Access Code is received, the call is routed to the corresponding port.
In the absence of fax/SAC codes, the call is defaulted to the voice port for use with stand alone or phone
system. Outbound calls are processed in the normal fashion with barge‐in protection with multiple EBI
ports for critical applications. Programming is easy using touch‐tones.
