Your Radio Shack AFX-300 Deluxe Automatic Fax/Data Switch lets you use your
telephone, an answering machine, a fax machine/fax modem, and a data modem
all on the same telephone line, eliminating the need and extra expense of
two phone lines.  When a call comes in, you can either answer it yourself,
let your answering machine answer it, or let the AFX-300 answer it.  If the
AFX-300 hears tones from a fax machine/fax modem, it directs the call to
your fax machine/fax modem.  If a call comes in from a data modem, the
AFX-300 directs the call to your data modem. If the call is a regular voice
call, you can carry on a normal conversation, or let the answering machine
record the caller's message as usual.

The AFX-300 also includes several special features that let you customize
its operation based on your needs.  Using either a remote touch-tone phone
or one on the same line as the AFX-300, you can adjust the number of rings
before it answers, route data modem calls to its fax jack, and more.

Your AFX-300 is easy to install.  It connects to an existing telephone jack
and requires no special wiring.  The AFX-300 works with most single and
multi-line non-KSU (key system unit) telephones, and even has built-in
features that are designed to work with distinctive ringing services
provided by most phone companies.  The AFX-300 is also compatible with
most telephone answering machines, fax machines, and fax or fax/data
modems.

This fax/data switch has been tested and found to comply with applicable UL
and FCC standards.
