You have acquired one of the finest intelligent data/fax or voice/data/fax modems available today from one of the world’s oldest modem manufacturers: Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. This user guide will help you install, configure, test, and use your modem.
Product Description
The Multi-Tech MT5656ZDX and MT5656ZDX-V modems are compatible with the ITU-TV.92 protocol that provide quick connections, downstream transmissions at speeds up to 56K bps, and upstream transmissions at speeds up to 48K bps when connected to V.92-compatible Internet Service Providers. The V.92 protocol is able to send downstream from the Internet to your computer at these speeds because data on the telephone network typically is converted from digital to analog only once before it reaches your modem. Upstream transmissions and transmissions between client modems are limited to 33.6K bps, as are upstream transmissions that are converted more than once on the telephone lines.
Modem features include Plug and Play operation. In standard mode, the modem can store up to four command lines or telephone numbers of up to 40 characters each in nonvolatile memory. Other modem capabilities include modem-on-hold, AT&T calling card tone detection, pulse and tone dialing, adaptive answer, V.42bis and V.44 data compression, and self-resetting lightning protection.
Please note that some V.92 features are turned off in the factory default configuration, and may need to be turned on, depending on your needs.
