Description

IP Splitter Multicoupler With IP Devider

The present invention relates to an IP splitter multi-coupler capable of transmitting and receiving two IP signals in one UTP cable, and more specifically, to form additional connection jacks for a data communication network by integrally forming a connection jack for data in a LAN environment. It is possible to see the effect of installing two UTP cables with one existing UTP cable, and also by modifying the IP divider to connect one IP signal to a computer and one telephone signal to a key phone or a general telephone. The present invention relates to a multicoupler with IP devider device.

In recent years, in response to the information age, the demand of general telephone networks and local area networks (LANs) is gradually increasing. In addition, various communication methods with complex functions such as Internet phones have emerged.

In general, since LAN is mainly used as a data communication network, and telephone networks are mainly used for analog communication, only limited data communication using a fax transmission or a personal computer modem is possible. For example, each company installs and operates LAN and telephone in the company. In this case, LAN cable and telephone line should be connected to each individual.

That is, as shown in Figure 2b, the telephone system is a one-to-many multi-party communication terminal device such as a telephone, facsimile, a modem for a PC communication computer through a telephone line that provides a communication path to a telephone exchange such as a trunk line switch or a telephone exchange. In this case, a telephone line connection jack such as an RJ-11 connection jack is generally used to physically couple and electrically connect the telephone line and the communication terminal device, and two-way voice and data communication is performed through the closed loop thus formed. It becomes possible.

On the other hand, a local area network system (LAN) is a network distribution device such as a hub that is connected to a router, a network server, or the like to provide a distributed connection function to a data communication network, and is usually a 10 base-T cable or a 100 base- Local area network interface devices (LAN cards or network adapters) are connected in a one-to-one or one-to-multiple manner through a data network line such as a 100 Base-T cable, and a host computer equipped with such a local area network interface device Data communication is performed according to protocols (CSMA / CD, DQDB, FDDI, MAC, etc. specified in IEEE 801.2, IEEE 801.2, IEEE 801.3, IEEE 801.4, IEEE 801.5, etc.).

Here, the host computer collectively refers to a communication means such as a personal computer and a communication terminal, in which a RJ-45 connection jack is usually used to physically couple and electrically connect a data network line and a local area network interface device similarly to a telephone system. A telephone line connection jack is used, and data communication is enabled through the closed loop thus formed.

By the way, the construction of the communication network line represented by such a local area network and the construction of the communication terminal line represented by telephone (telephone, facsimile, video cameras, receiving audio equipment, various sensors, such as connecting the line; In the following, the construction of a multi-line construction project (hereinafter, abbreviated as 'multi-line construction work') should be provided with a different line system and wiring installation system.

Therefore, as separate wiring for data line and multi-line are installed in duplicate, the available office floor area is reduced and the working environment becomes worse due to complicated wiring system, and it is used by individuals such as reorganization of office or relocation of office furniture. If it is necessary to move a personal computer and a telephone to another place, the work of dismantling or dismantling the data communication line and the multi-line is not only performed separately, but also the work of setting up the work is also performed by the double work. As efficiency decreases and multi-line management and data network line management must be managed and maintained in duplicate, unnecessary effort and cost are incurred to secure manpower to handle this, and each line is complicated. Diverse and congested cables If expansion is to be accelerated, and the rate of change gaengnyeon the line quality is poorly, cause a problem such that this call and data transmission quality due to significantly reduced interference between the track occur is increased.
