acoustic coupler (foldoc) | acoustic coupler
A device used to connect a modem
to a telephone line via an ordinary handset. The acoustic
coupler converts electrical signals from the modem to sound
via a loudspeaker, against which the mouthpiece of a telephone
handset is placed. The earpiece is placed against a
microphone which converts sound to electrical signals which
return to the modem. The handset is inserted into a
sound-proof box containing the louspeaker and microphone to
avoid interference from ambient noise.
Acousitic couplers are now rarely used since most modems have
a direct electrical connection to the telephone line. This
avoids the signal degradation caused by conversion to and from
audio. Direct connection is not always possible, and was
actually illegal in the United Kingdom before {British
Telecom} was privatised. BT's predecessor, the General Post
Office, did not allow subscribers to connect their own
equipment to the telephone line.

directional coupler (foldoc) | directional coupler
(tap) A passive device used in cable
systems to divide and combine radio frequency signals. A
directional coupler has at least three ports: line in, line
out, and the tap. The signal passes between line in and line
out ports with loss referred to as the insertion loss. A
small portion of the signal power applied to the line in port
passes to the tap port. A signal applied to the tap port is
passed to the line in port less the tap attenuation value.
The tap signals are isolated from the line out port to prevent
reflections. A signal applied to the line out port passes to
the line in port and is isolated from the tap port. Some
devices provide more than one tap output line (multi-taps).
