I took this just to have an image for today's blog post. dennissylvesterhurd.blogspot.com/2023/09/were-switching-t...
I had to use this null modem connector often in my early business life.
So this one is truly a heavy one with the full set of 25 pins connected and wired.
The weight is around 100 grams.
This shot is focus stacked out of 9 shots.

Taken Saturday night after the sun set from DUMBO - a lovely view of Manhattan. Even with no clouds, this view always has something to offer. And even at below freezing temperatures, there always seems to be a crowd here :-).
Sorry I haven't been around to visit everyone's streams. I'm backed up processing photos from several shoots and I've also been having ongoing connection problems with my ISP. I swapped out my modem yesterday but my connection still is dropping intermittently. I'll be around eventually. I hope everyone has a great week.
For everyone's info, DUMBO is an acronym for Down Under the Manhattan and Brooklyn Overpass and more info can be found here:

So far, my internet has been back for almost 24 hours, YAY! Too bad I haven't been home for most of that time :-X
We had a new modem delivered, and the old one was in the box, on the coffee table, waiting to be returned to BT.
Max decided to investigate, knocked it off, wriggled under the box and played under it until he tipped it over - then he lost interest! LOL
To be more accurate the device is a G.hn to Ethernet Managed Demarcation Point.

The last two Computer History Museum photos I'll post; today's topic is "Communications" This acoustic modem used the telephone handset to send and receive sounds that represented one and zero bits. As you can probably guess, they were quite slow, but they still allowed data to be transmitted over long distances.

An acoustic coupler is an interface device for coupling electrical signals by acoustical means—usually into and out of a telephone.
The link is achieved through converting electric signals from the phone line to sound and reconvert sound to electric signals needed for the end terminal, such as a teletypewriter, and back, rather than through direct electrical connection.
Prior to its breakup in 1984, Bell System's legal monopoly over telephony in the United States allowed the company to impose strict rules on how consumers could access their network. Customers were prohibited from connecting equipment not made or sold by Bell to the network.
It was not until a landmark court ruling regarding the Hush-A-Phone in 1956 that the use of a phone attachment (by a third party vendor) was allowed for the first time.
In 1963 Robert Weitbrecht developed a coupling device that converted sound from the ear piece of the telephone handset to electrical signals, and converts the electrical pulses coming from the teletypewriter to sound that goes into the mouth piece of the telephone handset.
This General Electric 300 Baud Modem is from the 1980s. I remember entering Weather Channel text that moved across the bottom of the screen from the local cable company. You would type…and then wait for the text to appear (watching the actual channel), to make sure you didn’t make a mistake.
Early times in my 20’s.
