Anderson Jacobson

Anderson Jacobson was primarily a California-based manufacturer of acoustic coupler modems. They also manufactured printing terminals designed to replace teletypes. Modems Anderson Jacobson began early in 1967 as a manufacturer of one of the first acoustic data couplers. This technical advancement was a step beyond directly wiring to phone lines. Their early designs were the size of a modern desktop computer, with the coupler on the front under a hinged wooden cover that swung shut over the handset to insulate it from external sounds. Over time the size of the required electronics shrank and later models were only slightly larger than the handset alone. Terminals Introduced May 1979 --> Some of its terminals were CRTs and others were Printer/Keyboard devices.
