Rockwell 1414VQH-R2 Uk 85804382 80-200723D Isa Modem Card

Description

The Rockwell 1414VQH-R2 is an internal modem card designed for installation in personal computers via an ISA (Industry Standard Architecture) slot. This model is specifically noted as a UK version, implying it may have specific line interface or regulatory compliance tailored for the United Kingdom's telecommunications network. The '1414' in the model name strongly suggests a 14.4 kilobits per second (Kbps) data transfer rate, a common standard for modems during the early to mid-1990s. Key identifiers for this specific unit include the part number 85804382 and the internal code 80-200723D. These numbers are crucial for inventory management, technical support, and ensuring compatibility with specific system configurations. As an ISA device, it would have been compatible with a wide range of PC and PC/AT compatible computers that featured this expansion bus. The primary function of the 1414VQH-R2 was to enable dial-up communication, allowing users to connect to the internet, access remote computer systems, and send or receive fax documents. The modem performs the essential task of modulating digital signals from the computer into analog signals for transmission over telephone lines and demodulating incoming analog signals back into digital data. Its 14.4 Kbps speed offered a significant improvement over earlier 2400 or 9600 baud modems, providing a more responsive online experience for the era.
