I have both the modem and the manual that came with it. The RCA type jack is an audio output. It can be configured several ways. You can feed the output to the audio input on the C64. This sound will then be fed to the RF modulator in the C64 which, when connected to a TV, will allow the dial tone, ringing and answer tones to be heard on the TV. If you use a monitor, the modem audio output is fed directly to the audio input on the monitor.
