ISI5634PCI/4/8 Quick Start 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.
The new IntelligentSerialInterface card, model ISI5634PCI is a
multiport serial port expansion card with four V.92data/Super G3 fax
modems. The cards capability can be doubled by adding an auxiliary
module, which also contains four modems. It is an excellent hardware
solution for adding fast serial ports to communication servers and
async hosts that have 32-bit PCI bus architecture.
Serial ports are essential to
Communication servers that pool modems and other
communication devices for users on a LAN
Asynchronous hosts that provide user access through serial ports.
The ISI5634PCI ships with drivers for the following multiuser
operating systems: Windows® 2000, Windows NT, version 4.0;
Windows 95 , Windows 98, and Windows Me; Novell Netware
version 5.x.; SCO Open Server 5; and Linux.
The IntelligentSerialInterface card can be combined to support
asynchronous serial devices (local or dial-up). The ports can be used to
connect basic terminals with or without multiple pages of memory to
multiplexer channels and asynchronous modems. Each ISI5634PCI
port can support as many screens as there are physical pages of
memory on the terminal. In Windows 95/98/Me, a built-in autodetect
utility enables detection of Multi-Tech modems and sets the proper
initialization strings.
ISI5634PCI Modems
The ISI5634PCI modems are compatible with the new ITU-T V.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 data downstream from the internet
to your computer at these speeds because data on the telephone
