WINport Dial-Out Networking software provides cost-effective access to online services, and terminal applications through shared modems. By sharing these resources, organizations reduce network complexity, benefiting from lower deployment costs, enhanced network security, and minimizing maintenance. Networks that employ modem ports or channels for inbound communication can share these resources using WINport.

When users dial out from the desktop, WINport dynamically connects them to the first available port. If all modems in the pool are busy, WINport prompts the user to queue for the next available modem. This entire operation is transparent to the user. There is nothing to change in the user’s dial-out networking software or in any application.
