OVERVIEW

By upgrading to x2™ or V.90, you can achieve data- transmission speeds nearly twice as fast as standard V.34 modems. Want to take advantage of V.92 services from your ISP? Well, we have a faxmodem for that, too.

These analog, 56-kbps (*) data faxmodems are available in both standalone and internal PCI card versions for PCs. We also offer a V.90-only ISA card version.

As always, if you don’t see what you’re looking for, call Black Box Tech Support.

U.S. Robotics 56K V.92 External Data Faxmodem (USR5686E)

V.90 and V.92 upstream connections. That’s what you get with the U.S. Robotics 56K V.92 External Data Faxmodem. This comprehensive support of new and previous standards means you get a wider choice of service providers and reduces your time to connect to and access a phone company’s call management services.

Whether it’s shopping on-line, accessing highly detailed documents, or processing bandwidth-intensive multimedia presentations, you need a modem that‘s equipped to handle them all. For the richest sounds and most vivid graphics, the U.S. Robotics 56K V.92 External Data Faxmodem helps you establish the fastest possible connection on your analog phone line.

Backward compatible, the faxmodem adjusts to the highest possible speed when it connects to a service provider. And advanced line probing technology finds the most efficient path for your connection. The modem not only offers fast down- loads, but the V.92 standard brings three key enhancements to 56K technology(**):

Modem on Hold makes the most of your phone company‘s Call Waiting, Caller ID, and Voice Mail services. The modem’s software alerts you to incoming calls while you’re on-line and provides you with the caller’s identity. If you take the call, the modem ”suspends” your on-line session and lets you resume the session when you’re through—all without any redialing

required. If you don‘t want to take the call, it’s automatically routed to your voice mail.

Quick Connect reduces the time it takes to make a connec- tion to your service provider. It does this by ”remembering” the line conditions from the previous connection and bypassing portions of its training sequence, so you get on-line faster.

V.PCM Upstream enables the V.92 faxmodem’s upstream

communication to reach speeds up to 48 kbps. But the decision is yours. You can maintain the fastest possible downstream speed (up to 53 kbps), or you can ”balance” your connection for a bit slower downstream and faster upstream communication.

Easy to install and use, the 56K V.92 External Data Fax- modem comes with CD-ROM-based installation software, which makes installation a snap and enables you to get the most from your modem and the Internet. Installing the drivers is a simple matter of inserting the Installation CD into your CD-ROM drive and following the instructions for your specific operating system. This same CD also contains the ControlCenter software for configuring your modem settings.

*NOTE: These faxmodems are capable of receiving downloads at up to 56 kbps and sending at up to 31.2 kbps. Actual download speeds you experience may be lower due to varying line conditions. Although these modems are capable of 56-kbps downloads, FCC regulations limit download speed to 53 kbps. The modems require compatible analog phone line and server equipment.

(**)NOTE: V.92 enhancements may not immediately be available from all ISPs. Contact your ISP to find out when its servers will be updated to support V.92 technology. The U.S. Robotics® 56K V.92 External Faxmodem is backward compatible and will negotiate the highest possible speed when connecting to an ISP. In addition, Call Waiting service from your phone company is required for using Internet Call Notification. Caller ID service from your phone company is required for using the Caller ID feature of Internet Call Notification.
