    2-CHANNEL ASYNC TDM 2. Introduction The 2-Channel Async TDM is a full-duplex, character-interleaved time-division multiplexor, enabling two asynchronous terminals to share one asynchronous modem or a multiplexor port. Its two async sub-channels operate at the same data rate, selectable up to 9600 bps. The main channel operates at twice that rate—up to 19200 bps.
