U.S. Robotics has been building the world's best modems for over 25 years, and now we're bringing you the latest in modem technology. The U.S. Robotics 56K* Faxmodem PCI for Windows combines superior performance and reliability with the advantages of V.92 technology. V.92 technology lets you send e-mail and attachments faster, get online quicker, and even take incoming phone calls without losing your Internet connection. Getting a better connection is as easy as the three-step installation procedure. V.92 offers exciting features and improvements over the old V.90 standard. These features may not immediately be available with all ISPs. (Contact your ISP to find out when they will be updating their servers to include V.92 technology.) V.92 offers:
Modem on Hold
Modem on Hold "suspends" your online session for incoming calls and returns to your online activities after your conversations without redialing. Please note that call-waiting service from your telephone company is required.
Quick Connect
Quick Connect "remembers" line conditions from the previous session, bypasses portions of the training sequence, and gets you online faster. Reduce your dial-up connection time as much as 50 percent!
V.PCM
This enhancement makes the online experience faster and better for those who send information instead of just Web surfing. If you're a gamer, you'll be able to send your commands at greater speed than your opponents who have outdated modems! V.PCM Upstream reaches upstream speeds up to 48 Kbps and lets you choose either the fastest downstream speed (up to 53 Kbps) or a "balanced" connection of downstream and upstream communication.
Whether or not your ISP currently supports the new V.92 technology, you can take advantage of ICN (Internet Call Notification) immediately! ICN allows you to see who's attempting to call while you're spending time online. Since V.92 is backward compatible to older technologies, you'll be ready to enjoy the benefits of V.92 as soon as your ISP upgrades!
*Capable of receiving at up to 56 Kbps and sending at up to 48 Kbps (or 31.2 Kbps with V.90 server). Due to FCC regulations, receiving speeds are limited to 53 Kbps. Actual speeds may vary. V.92 and V.90 features require compatible phone line and support from your Internet Service Provider (ISP). U.S. Robotics modems featuring V.92 enhancements are backward compatible and will negotiate the highest possible speed when connecting to an ISP.
