56Kbps Technology

download or fax services using the high speed data/fax modem. The software-upgradeable feature ensures continuous support of future ITU 56K standards as they become available.

The Data/Fax Modem is installed as a COM port and runs an extended AT command set, and works with all major Windows Fax/Modem software. You don’t have to change your current communications software.

The video-ready interface supplied by the CardBus 56k Modem Card provides videoconferencing capability using traditional POTS lines.

Note:

56Kbps refers to download speed only, and requires compatible modems at both ends. Other conditions, including telephone line quality and country specific regulation, may limit modem speed.

The Hypertec CardBus 56k Modem Card uses K56flex× and V.90 modem technologies to reach speeds of up to 56Kbps over standard phone lines. This, together with downstream speeds of up to 56Kbps provided by the

user’s Internet Service Provider (ISP) results in dramatically faster delivery of Internet information.

The higher speeds are achieved by using only one digital-to-analog line conversion in the connection between the user and the Internet Service Provider. This requires the ISP to have a direct digital connection, and the modems at both ends must be compatible. Using V.90 and K56flex× technologies, data is downloaded from the server at speeds of up to 56Kbps, while data sent upstream by the user travels at the standard V.34 maximum rate of 33.6Kbps.
