CHAPTER 1. FEATURES AND COMPATIBILITY
INTRODUCTION
Congratulations! The Courier modem you've purchased repre-
sents powerful, advanced electronic design that offers excep-
tional reliability, compatibility and flexibility at all standard
rates up to 28,800 or 28.8K bits per second (bps). The
transmission rate between the computer and modem,
depending on your equipment and software support, can be as
high as 115.2K bps.
Features
The following features and capabilities assure you of superior
reliability and performance.
Connections up to 28.8K bps
With the V.34 standard and the V.Fast Class modulation
scheme, two modems can connect at rates up to 28.8K bps,
twice as fast as the rates of standard ITU-T (formerly CCITT)
V.32 bis modems, which are limited to calls of 14.4K bps or less.
Software Upgrades
Courier high speed modems are now software upgradable,
allowing you quick, easy access to the latest advances in data
communication technology. See Appendix I.
Quick Connect
In V.32 terbo mode, Courier high speed modems can handshake
and start transmitting much faster than typical training times
that range between 9 and 18 seconds for other modems.
