Dell X2749 2 x Ports RJ-11 56k V.92 Internal PCI Modem Card

Product Description

The Dell X2749 is an internal modem card designed to provide essential communication capabilities for desktop computers. Utilizing the PCI interface, it easily installs into an available PCI slot, offering a straightforward upgrade path for systems requiring dial-up internet access or fax functionality. The modem adheres to the V.92 standard, enabling download speeds of up to 56 kilobits per second, which was the maximum speed achievable over standard analog phone lines. This makes it suitable for basic internet browsing, email access, and other data-intensive tasks that do not require high-speed broadband. Beyond its data transmission capabilities, the Dell X2749 also functions as a fax modem. This allows users to send and receive faxes directly from their computer, eliminating the need for a separate fax machine. The inclusion of two RJ-11 ports provides flexibility; one port is typically used to connect to the telephone line, while the other can be used to connect a standard telephone, allowing for simultaneous use of the phone line for voice calls. This dual-port design is a common feature that enhances the usability of dial-up modems. This modem card is an ideal solution for users who still rely on analog phone lines for connectivity, such as in certain remote locations, for backup internet access, or for specific business needs that require faxing. Its internal design ensures a clean setup within the computer case, with only the necessary external connections visible. The Dell X2749 represents a reliable and cost-effective way to equip a desktop computer with robust dial-up data and fax capabilities.
