Product Description
The IBM 98Y3992, manufactured by MultiTech, is a portable external modem that connects to a computer via a USB port. This design offers significant advantages in terms of ease of use and compatibility, as USB ports are standard on virtually all modern computers. The modem supports data speeds up to 56Kb/s, representing the peak performance for analog dial-up connections, and also includes fax capabilities. Its portability makes it an ideal solution for users who need dial-up connectivity on multiple computers or for travel. Unlike internal modems, it requires no installation within the computer case. Users simply connect the USB cable to their computer and the RJ-11 cable to a telephone line. The package typically includes the necessary cables for both connections. This modem bridges the gap between legacy analog communication needs and modern computing interfaces. It allows users to leverage existing telephone infrastructure for internet access or faxing without needing to open their computer or rely on older, less common port types. The collaboration between IBM and MultiTech signifies a reliable and functional solution for businesses and individuals requiring dependable dial-up services.
