This chapter is intended for systems equipped with a modem or
jack.
The built-in modem is able to receive data according to the ITU
standard for V.90 transmissions with up 56 Kbit/s.
Since the power output of modems is restricted due to the
regulations of some telecommunication providers, the possible
maximum download speed can be restricted. The actual speed
may be dependent on the online conditions and other factors.
Data sent from the user to the server are transmitted with 31.2
Kbit/s. Prerequisite for this high speed reception is an analogue
telephone line compatible with the V.90 standard and a
corresponding compatible Internet provider or company-owned
host computer.
The modem is fitted with an RJ-11 interface, into which a
standard telephone lead can be plugged. If your modem is a
combo card please make sure that it is used only with the
appropriate port.
Warning!
Use only analogue telephone sockets. The modem
cannot withstand the voltage levels of digital telephone
systems such PABX or lines such as ISDN or
Broadband services.
