IMPORTANT! In accordance with the ITU-T standard for 56K transmissions (V.90), this modem is capable of 56 Kbps down-
loads. Due to current IC/FCC regulations on power output, maximum download speed is limited to 53,333 bps. However, the
download speeds you experience may be lower due to varying line conditions and other factors. Uploads from users to
server equipment travel at speeds up to 31.2 Kbps. An analog phone line compatible with the V.90 standard, and an Internet
provider or corporate host site compatible with the V.90 standard is necessary for these high-speed downloads.
