The TV-NET Rank 2 controller is an expansion port device intended for use with the TV-NET Rank 2 MC-4800 modem. It is compatible with software expecting the TV-NET controller and provides 8 additional buttons, though some button labels do not match those of any TV-NET controller variant. It is suspected the extra buttons are used for software built into the modem. The P/T switch on the back signals to software whether to dial using pulse or Touch-Tone. This controller can be used alongside the TV-NET MCP-24 printer, which also connects through the Famicom expansion port, by using a multi-port adapter believed to have been bundled with the printer.

Button state is returned in a 32-bit report across 32 reads. The first 24 bits match those of the TV-NET controller.
