USRobotics 64-245630-04 56K Fax Modem

Product Description

The USRobotics 64-245630-04 is a 56K fax modem, typically an external unit, designed to provide high-speed dial-up connectivity for data and fax transmissions. It adheres to the V.90 and V.92 standards, enabling download speeds of up to 56 Kbps, which was the maximum theoretical speed achievable over analog phone lines. This modem is suitable for a range of applications, including internet access, remote network access, and file transfers, offering a significant speed improvement over older modem technologies. In addition to its data capabilities, this modem also includes integrated fax functionality, allowing users to send and receive faxes at speeds up to 14.4 Kbps. This dual capability makes it a versatile communication tool for both business and personal use. The external form factor means it connects to a computer via a serial (RS-232) or USB port (depending on the specific sub-model) and usually requires an external power adapter, simplifying installation as it does not require opening the computer case. The 64-245630-04 is a reliable choice for users who require or prefer dial-up connectivity, perhaps as a backup internet solution or for environments where broadband is unavailable. Its robust design and support for modern dial-up standards ensure efficient and stable communication. The modem typically features LED indicators to display connection status, data activity, and other operational information.
