Dial-out modem is already installed on the system, to verify the use one should check if it is allowed or not. Hence Acceptable use policy.

Acceptable use pertains to the equipment implemented already, not for regulating what equipment can or cannot be implemented.

remote access policy? Should it not be Acceptable use since he is already on the network and not connecting remotely?

I quite agree that is should be acceptable use policy. except the installation is permissible for a business need, such shouldn't be allowed.
