The Zoom/FaxModem 56K USB utilizes the
capabilities of a computers Universal Serial Bus for the fastest and most
convenient modem hookup yet! Using the included USB cable, just plug the
Zoom/FaxModem 56K USB into your PC or Macintosh USB port; you dont even
have to shut down the computer. The new modem will then be installed
automatically and youll be ready for fast, reliable access to the
Internet, and other dial-up modems. Configuration is automatic and without
the potential conflicts of an RS-232 serial port or an internal modem. The
Zoom/FaxModem 56K USB doesnt even need an external power supply. It gets
its power from the USB port itself
The performance of the Zoom/FaxModem
56K USB can be significantly better than that of conventional 56K modems
that connect to a computer through a serial port. The modem is capable of
receiving data from an Internet Service Provider (ISP), online service, or
corporate LAN over standard phone lines at speeds up to 56 Kbps uncompressed
or 230.4 Kbps with compression. Outgoing data is transmitted at normal modem
speeds of up to 33.6 Kbps.
The Zoom/FaxModem 56K USB is
Dualmode; supporting both the V.90 ITU Standard and K56flex, the commonly
used pre-standard 56K technology. The modem automatically selects V.90,
K56flex or 33.6 Kbps or slower speed to achieve the fastest compatible
connection speed. The Zoom/FaxModem 56K USB features a reprogrammable
Digital Signal Processor (DSP) and flash memory for downloading modem code
updates. This means you can easily update your modem to use the most
compatible and reliable technology.
Like all Zoom Dualmode
modems, the Zoom/FaxModem 56K USB includes V.80 capability for compatibility
with H.324 standard point-to-point video telephony over regular phone lines.
Additional features include
Distinctive Ring support (requires local telephone company service) to
automatically route voice, fax and data calls, and ZoomGuard lightning
protection. ZoomGuard provides superior protection against lightning, the
number one cause of modem failure. ZoomGuard is not only better than the
varistor protection found on other modems, but also outperforms most
stand-alone surge protectors.
Bundled software includes
hardware drivers and utilities plus fax/voice/data communications,
teleconferencing, Internet access, graphics editing and other useful
programs.
The Zoom/FaxModem 56K USB is
made and supported by Zoom Telephonics, Inc., and is backed by Zooms
outstanding seven year warranty.
