{{Short description | Modem sharing device for sharing serial connections}} | |||
A '''Modem Sharing Device''' ('''MSD'''), also commonly known as a '''Line Sharing Device''' ('''LSD'''), '''Modem sharer''', or '''Line sharer''' allows multiple devices to share a serial connection. Only multipoint serial protocols such as ] are supported. Both synchronous and asynchronous datastreams can be used. A common example would have a Tandem as host connected to multiple ATM machines often with a modem or Cisco router in between. | |||
