Private Network (VPN) entry points into your network or the
Internet.
VADB introduces no additional load on the HN7700S, does not
affect other HN7700S features, and all applications will work, but
data is sent and received at a slower rate.

Optional protection module

Some countries may require installation of a protection module
between the HN7700S remote terminal and the public switched
telephone network (PSTN) telephone line. As of the date of this
manual, only Brazil requires the use of this optional protection
module.
For installation instructions for the optional VADB protection
module, contact your service provider.
The HN7700S remote terminal has one DCE/DTE RS-232 serial
