WELCOME TO 56K* INFORMATION ACCESS
1
The International Telecommunication Union
(ITU) determines the technical protocols that
communications devices must use to operate
with each other. Modems that comply with
ITU standards can “talk” to other standards-
compliant modems and fax machines
worldwide.
The ITU has decided on a worldwide
standard for 56K modem technology. With a
3Com U.S. Robotics modem, you can get
56K Internet access from any service
provider who offers the ITU V.90 standard
or 3Com 56K technology. 3Com is working
with providers everywhere to quickly
upgrade their service to the ITU V.90
standard.
* IMPORTANT! In accordance with the ITU
standard for 56K transmissions (V.90), this
modem is capable of 56 Kbps downloads.
However, due to FCC rules which restrict power
output of the service providers’ modems,
current download speeds are limited to 53 Kbps.
Actual speeds may vary depending on 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 or 3Com 56K technology, and an
Internet provider or corporate host site
compatible with the V.90 standard or 3Com
56K technology are necessary for these high-
speed downloads. See
