Other Classes of MNP
D-4 Microcom Networking Protocol
MNP Class 6
Allows half-duplex, fast-train high-speed reliable
connections with other MNP Class 6 modems at speeds of
4800 to 9600 bps.
Universal Link Negotiation allows the modem to
automatically connect with other MNP modems at the
highest common speed and protocol.
Statistical Duplexing adjusts the line bandwidth and data
traffic flow during reliable connections to achieve
maximum throughput, resulting in error-free transmission
over 2-wire dial-up or leased lines at effective throughputs
as high as 11000 bps on the AX/9600 Plus and 19200 bps
on the AX/9624c with data compression.
MNP Class 7
Provides Enhanced Data Compression, which combined
with Class 4 allows throughput of more than twice the
connection speed. MNP Class 7 Enhanced Data
Compression not only dynamically adjusts to the type of
data being transmitted, but allows for the probability of
character frequency, for superior compression efficiency.
MNP Class 9
Includes enhanced Universal Link Negotiation.
