Product Description
The Compaq 141959-001 is a 14.4K speed fax modem card specifically designed for Compaq's PAQ Lite and Contura lines of portable computers. These early portable devices often required specialized expansion cards to add communication capabilities, and this modem fulfilled that role by enabling dial-up data and fax transmissions over standard telephone lines. With a maximum data transfer rate of 14.4 kilobits per second (Kb/s), this modem was suitable for basic tasks such as sending and receiving faxes, accessing early online services, and performing simple data transfers. While slower by modern standards, it represented a significant advancement in mobile computing connectivity at the time of its release. The card's integration with the PAQ Lite and Contura series suggests a proprietary or specific connector designed to interface with these particular laptop models. Its primary function was to provide essential communication links for users who needed to stay connected while traveling, making it a vital accessory for business professionals and early adopters of mobile computing technology.
