MT5634ZBA-USB User Guide

Introduction

Welcome to the world of data communications. You have acquired one of the finest intelligent data and fax modems available today from one of America’s oldest and most respected modem manufacturers: Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. This User Guide will help you install, configure, test and use your modem as well as provide links to useful Web sites and other resources.

Product Description

The MT5634ZBA-USB-Mac modem (hereafter MultiModemUSB) incorporates V.90™ technology, which enables Internet connections at data rates up to 53K bps* over standard telephone lines. V.90 technology is able to send data 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 data rates of 33.6K bps, as are downstream transmissions that are converted more than once on the telephone network.

The MultiModemUSB comes with interactive automatic dialing and command mode configuration. In standard mode, you can store up to two command lines or telephone numbers of up to 40 characters each in the modem’s nonvolatile memory. The modem pulse- or tone-dials, and recognizes dial tones and busy signals for reliable call-progress detection. The modem can detect AT&T calling card tones, and also has Caller ID, remote configuration and incorporates self-resetting lightning protection. The modem is FCC-registered for connection without notification to the telephone company.

The MultiModemUSB is a full-duplex intelligent modem with V.42 error correction, V.42bis data compression, and V.17 (14,400 bps), Class 1 and 2, Group 3 fax capabilities.

Universal Serial Bus (USB)

Universal Serial Bus (USB), defined by a consortium of industry leaders, permits connection of multiple low-speed and medium speed computer peripheral devices such as telephones, modems, printers, keyboards, mice, and scanners; all from a single port. The specification, based on an open architecture is quickly becoming a standard feature in new desktop and notebook computers. For more details on the Universal Serial Bus, refer to the USB Public Web Board on the World Wide Web, at:

*Although V.90 technology is capable of downloads of up to 56K bps, FCC regulations currently restrict ISP modems to downloads of 53K bps.
