[PEN-TEST] Modem detection without dialing

I am wondered if there is a product which can detect the existence of a modem,
without
the need for the modem to be connected ?.  Specifically, in a LAN environment,
can an
administrator/pen tester identify a modem through the network, rather than
through the telephone
network.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.
